Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 08/01/2022 02:45 am @pro, embedding this coin in clear plastic was not done at the mint but rather afterwards. Other than being an interesting presentation piece, I don't think that the numismatic value is enhance though.

I believe you mean you bought it at an auction. What did you pay for it and we can tell you if you got a deal or not. Edited by JimmyD 08/01/2022 09:46 am Report this Post to the Staff
datadragon Pillar of the Community United States 1648 Posts	Posted 08/01/2022 09:56 am I agree with Spence that you have a 1964 Kennedy half dollar that someone placed later in a non mint holder for presentation. The 1964 Kennedy half dollars are among the most sought after of all 90% silver coins and have a value also from the silver. the U.S. Mint changed the composition of the dime and quarter to a copper-nickel clad format while reducing the silver content of the half dollar to 40% beginning in 1965. When uncirculated only, some higher quality examples may be worth looking at grading as top examples can be worthwhile to do so, but otherwise is just a nicely presented kennedy. T here are a few varieties also, a couple mentioned here that can add value if they exist on the coin: https://www.PCGS.com/news/1964-kenn...ilver-halves Report this Post to the Staff
