Less than a month after his death, the Kennedy half dollar was authorized by congress, cutting short and replacing the Franklin half dollar. The coin was released to the public in March the following year. The original 1964 "Kennedy Memorial" silver half dollar is the most collected coin date in history and the only issue produced in 90% silver. When silver's intrinsic value rose in 1965, the Kennedy's content was reduced to 40% silver. Later issues were struck in copper-nickel. Since 2002, Kennedy half dollars are only minted in limited numbers for collectors. Mintmark Location In 1964, the mintmark was minted on the reverse of the 1964 coin located on the left-hand side just below the eagle's claw. From 1968 to present, the mintmark can be observed on the obverse of the coin just below the point of Kennedy's bust and above the date. 1965-1968 issues do not carry a mintmark. Kennedy half dollars have been minted at Philadelphia (no mintmark), Denver (D) and San Francisco (S).
