Collectible coins are numismatic items that hold value beyond their face worth due to factors such as rarity, demand, historical significance, and condition. The Kennedy Half Dollar, issued in honor of President John F. Kennedy, was first released in 1964, with the 1987 edition being significant due to its limited production. The 1987 Kennedy Half Dollar was minted in both Philadelphia and San Francisco, with the latter being part of a special proof set. The San Francisco minted coins are often more sought after by collectors, particularly in higher grades, due to their quality and lower mintage.
