Part of Silver Bonanza (timed auction by Fred Wilson Auction Service LLC)
High bid $41.00
Status: Sold
This lot features a collection of 17 Kennedy Half Dollar coins, each containing 40% silver. These half dollars were minted between 1965 and 1970, following the passage of the Coinage Act of 1965, which reduced the silver content in coins. The coins bear the profile of President John F. Kennedy, a tribute crafted shortly after his passing, designed by Gilroy Roberts and Frank Gasparro. This collection represents a snapshot of mid-20th-century U.S. coinage.
