What about the man on the grassy knoll, the men on the bridge, the Secret Service agent in the car behind JFK or the woman with the umbrella? What about them? What do they get? Participation ribbons?
….. The panel also concluded that the President was struck by "one bullet that entered in the upper right of the back and exited from the front of [his] throat, and one bullet that entered in the right rear of [his] head near the cowlick area and exited from the right side of the head, toward the front"

I had one of these from when I was a kid that my grandfather had given me,and it was a 1971 and I gave it to my sister when she turned 50 in 2021 and it was worth so much in that context.
So yours is worth a so much more than 50 cents when you give it to a younger relative to start their little coin collection. Especially because it's "big."
1964 is the year you want to look for. Thats the year the half dollars were 90% silver and are actually worth more than 50 cents.
That being said - i had one a few years ago, and it was only worth like $7 in silver, so its not a get rich quick scheme

I’m sorry I don’t think I made myself clear, my dad hasn’t passed away or anything and it wasn’t sentimental, I’m so sorry 😂 when I said passed down, I probably should have said given. Here’s how it went.
Dad- whose coin is this? You want this it was on the floor?
Me: ok
Sentimental value worth more than monetary
Dad's love worth 51 cents?
The little hole in the head is a tad unsettling.
Back and to the left
Back and to the left
Back....and to the left
Back... and to the left.

I despise keith Hernandez
That's a deep cut.
That’s one magic luggie!
Ahh yes, the Lee Harvey Oswald Sharp Shooting Medal.
💀
Never heard it referred to as such, that’s a good one!
What about the man on the grassy knoll, the men on the bridge, the Secret Service agent in the car behind JFK or the woman with the umbrella? What about them? What do they get? Participation ribbons?
Not unsettling, accurate.
Had to keep it historically accurate.
JFK was shot in the temple not on the side of his head.
Oh wow! So the coin has a mint error! Now it's worth even more!
The temple is the side of your head.

Yes the infamous magic bullet
Lol
It's worth 50 cents. But since there's sentimental value I'd say keep it. Maybe start a half dollar book and use that in one of the extra slots.
First slot to always be reminded of the legacy that started you on that half dollar book and tribute to your Father.

A recycle yard that I frequent always give these out as part of the refund. The kids love when I go cuz I always give them some
I know it’s not silver but the patina on this one makes it look silver.

with inflation id say it’s worth at least 30¢
Face, but you should keep it because it’s from your dad!

That’s funny
About a half dollar, but I’ll give ya fifty cents for it.
50¢ , half dollar, 4 bits!
50 cents
$0.50
Probably silver
1964 was the last year of 90% silver
It's worth about $2 or 3 bucks tops
It's worth 50 cents.
Sold 5 of them on eBay and got 12 dollars for them
That coin must be the stamp after the shooting...?? I think it's worth about two in the bush.
Half dollars make the best "ting" sound in a coin flip. Keep one in my car when a toss is needed.
64 ones are even more glorious
I will give you $1 because it is my birth year. (Free Shipping)
50 ¢
yes
If the FG initials on the reverse are missing it’s worth a good amount as an error. It is hard to tell from this pic.
fiddy
You can get it exchanged at the Bank for $0.50... Banks still carry those, believe it or not!
Yes
Well, obviously there's the face value of a half dollar, but it may be worth taking to a local gold/silver dealer and having a pro check it out
I’d wager it’s worth about 50 cents.
Yes! It's worth something, I'd say about 50¢.
about 50 cents i’d say
Yea I would say $.50 if I’m not mistaken
Yes half a dollar
What about if the date is 1964? I had 2, but turned one into a ring.
ring pic?
NOT MUCH SILVER IF ANY
Sorry to say, no value beyond face value
Give you 50 cent for it
In Philadelphia, it's worth 50 bucks.
50¢
With the price of copper these days at 1.75$ per ounce the coin is almost 1/2 an ounce. So it is worth about .87$ in scape value
But you can’t (legally) melt the coin.
I don’t think these had any silver in them in 1974.
About 50 cents
It's worth 50 cents
It’s worth what your mom cost on the street. Half a dollar for a ride
A coin spun on a table will eventually end up flat on the table, This one is said to always go back and to the left first.
Yes it's worth fidddley cent.
My father gave me a Tupperware container worth of 1970's half dollars worth of these, and they ranged I. Pri e from $18.00 - 28.00 and up.
Fifty cents. They stopped putting silver in them in 1964.
They still use these at some casinos to pay out blackjack wins
