The 1968-D Kennedy Half Dollar is a collectible coin produced by the United States Mint in Denver. It is part of the Kennedy series, which was introduced in 1964 to honor President John F. Kennedy after his assassination. The half dollar features a portrait of Kennedy on the obverse and the Presidential Seal on the reverse. As a coin minted during a period of declining silver content, the 1968-D is composed primarily of copper and nickel, with no silver content, making it less valuable in terms of intrinsic metal value compared to earlier issues in the series. Collectors often seek out Kennedy Halves for their historical significance and design.
