1968 half dollar Robert Kennedy?

In: Coins and Paper Money [Edit categories]

Answer:

Check your history books. That's John Kennedy on the half.

JFK halves from 1965 to 1969 are 40% silver. At $17/oz they contain around $3 worth of metal.

1964 halves are 90% silver and contain about $7 of silver.

1971 and later have no silver at all and are worth 50 cents.
