This six-coin lot brings together three consecutive dates from the early Kennedy half dollar series. The group includes two 1967 half dollars with no mint mark, three 1968-D half dollars, and one 1969-D half dollar. All six are from the U.S. Mint’s 40% silver-clad issues and have a combined face value of $3.00.
The obverse of each coin features Gilroy Roberts’s left-facing portrait of President John F. Kennedy, with LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, and the date. Frank Gasparro’s reverse, adapted from the presidential seal, shows a heraldic eagle holding an olive branch and arrows, surrounded by a ring of stars.
