The 1964 Kennedy half dollar is the only 90% silver version of the coin ever struck for circulation. It was minted in a single year, right after President Kennedy's assassination, and carries Gilroy Roberts' portrait on the obverse and the Great Seal on the reverse. Brilliant Uncirculated pieces keep most of their original luster and sharp detail. Collectors seek it as the first year of the series and the last regular-issue US half dollar with that much silver. Later Kennedy halves dropped to 40% silver in 1965 and then to copper-nickel, so this is the one that stands apart from the rest of the run.

Collectors value the 1964 Kennedy half as the silver year of the series and a common entry point. Many note that BU examples are easy to find and that luster and strike quality vary from coin to coin.
