The 1978 Kennedy Half Dollar is a piece of U.S. coinage history, minted as a memorial to President John F. Kennedy.
This coin is not made of silver but of a copper-nickel clad, making silver versions more valuable.
Circulated coins are common and hold nominal value, mainly as collectors' items rather than investment pieces.
Uncirculated or proof coins, especially with no wear, can fetch higher prices among collectors.
Special mint marks like 'D' for Denver or 'S' for San Francisco can influence the coin's value.
Condition is key; coins graded by services like PCGS or NGC can command premium prices.
Error coins, with unique minting mistakes, are rare and may be worth significantly more.
Special sets, like the 1978 Proof Set, often contain half dollars with higher collectible value.
Always consult a reputable coin dealer or numismatic expert to accurately assess your coin's value.
