The 1966 Kennedy Half Dollar is a notable coin in the series of American half dollars that commemorates President John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in 1963. This particular coin is part of a special production run, with a total mintage of 2,200,000 pieces, indicating its relatively limited availability compared to other years. This coin is a 50¢ denomination, reflecting the currency of the United States of America. It was produced during a time of significant change and reflection in American society following Kennedy's untimely death. The design features a profile of President Kennedy on the obverse, while the reverse showcases a rendition of the presidential seal, symbolizing the office he held. Key specifications like height, width, diameter, weight, and edge type, while marked as "N/A" or "0.00000000," suggest that the particulars of these measurements are not provided or considered essential for a general description. The coin does not have a mint mark, which means it was produced in one of the mints without a distinctive identifier. Collectors often seek this coin for its historical significance and relatively low mintage. Depending on the condition—ranging from uncirculated to circulated—its value can vary significantly in the marketplace. For those interested in numismatics, the 1966 Kennedy Half Dollar represents both a piece of Americana and an important asset for coin collectors.
