How is it going guys! In this episode I’m going to show you my Kennedy half dollars,
with coppern-nickel clad and silver content. Coins are in various condition,
but mostly display nice preservation and silver or nickel grey reflectivity. So before starting
assessment of these half dollars one by one, I’ll highly recommend you to subscribe to this

Starting with this 1984 D Kennedy half dollar in lower mint condition. MS60 if not MS61 if graded.
This Denver example display pleasant luster and bold strike. But unfortunately obverse
side displays numerous distractions, scratches and this large circular gouging going across the
lettering Liberty. But when we turn it over, we witness very nice appealing, with less mentionable
contact marks and more reflectivity. The 1984-D Kennedy Half Dollar is a tougher date in the Clad
Kennedy Half Dollar series. It is hard to come by even in MS65 condition. In MS66 it becomes
more difficult and is considered a scarce coin in this grade. In mint state 67 population get
scarcer and guiding price surges to over $1,200. Anything above this grade is considered rare.
Next 1971 Kenned half dollar in circulated, most likely in AU condition with very pale
remnants of luster. Strike is sharp and high points display no wear,
yet observe numerous contact marks and some blemishes on this side as well. Main
distraction is the large gouge on the face of the Kennedy. This is the first year that the
Kennedy Half Dollar was struck in Copper Nickel Clad, as the Mint completely removed the silver
composition from Kennedy Half Dollars this year. They start commanding premiums in mint state 66
and over. MS67 specimens are scarce and are worth around $2,500 as for PCGS price guide.
Here is 1973 D Kennedy half dollar also in lower mint condition. This one displays
neatly preserved surfaces. Under close inspection first thing that catches the
eyes is the die polish lines of the fields. Surfaces are lusterous and strike is sharp.
Mintage of 1973 D half dollars is over 83 million, so finding uncirculated specimens
should not be an issue as far as I can tell. However in mint state 67 and over they are
highly elusive. IN ms67 condition PCGS certified just 3 coins with guiding price of over $1,100.
Moving on with this Bicentennial 50 cent also in mint condition. I’m not that good at grading
the coins but from my experience, looking at this luster, clean focal points, pinpoint strike, this
specimen could rival with MS64 or 65 specimens, If don’t think so, please type down your version
in comment section. Edge reeds are well preserved as well. As you can see, this issue has different
reverse design to commemorate bicentennial of US independence declaration , the independence hall
in the center. Bicentennial half dollars are also valuable in higher grades. MS67 examples
are worth over $1700 as for NGC price guide And the best for the last. My silver clad Kenned
half dollar in about uncirculated condition. For beginning collectors I think it would be proper
to explain how to tell the difference between clad and silver half dollar. Most coin roll
hunters instead of checking all the coins by their weight or date, just inspect there edge.
1964 silver Half dollar won’t have coppery-red strip like on this Kennedy half dollar. The coins
were first released to the public in March 1964, and they quickly became popular among collectors
and the general public. Due to the popularity of the coin, the Mint continued to produce it
in large quantities throughout the 1960s and 1970s. This coin contains 90 percent silver and
10 percent copper and in higher grades values are quite dramatic. For instance this MS68 gem
was sold for over $12,500.00 in 2019 on Ebay. Another rare variety you should know about is
1964 half dollars from special mint set. According to Jaime Hernandez from PCGS they come with high
quality finish and the strike is very sharp as it displays very clear details on both the obverse
and the reverse. The coins also contain a smooth satin like appearance with the rims being very
square and sharp. There are die polishing lines throughout the coins surfaces. For instance this
SMS half dollar in SP67+ grade was bargained for over $48,000.00 at Heritage auctions.
