The obverse side of the coin features a portrait of President John F. Kennedy, 35th president of the United States. Within hours of Kennedy's assassination, the director of the Mint began evaluating the possibility of featuring Kennedy on the silver dollar, half dollar, or quarter. The choice of coin was offered to Jackie - she suggested the half dollar (which currently featured Benjamin Franklin) as she did not want to displace George Washington from the quarter. Congress passed legislation to feature Kennedy's portrait on the half dollar one later. The reverse side of the coin features the seal of the United States. 1964 was the first Kennedy half dollars were produced, and the last half dollars were struck in 90% silver.
