The 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar stands as a powerful symbol of national remembrance and numismatic artistry. This Accented Hair variety, struck in 90% silver and certified PR68 by PCGS, represents the very first Proof issue of the series — a limited early strike distinguished by enhanced hair detail above Kennedy’s ear.

Favored by collectors and historians alike, the Accented Hair design was quickly modified at the request of Jacqueline Kennedy, making original proofs like this one a short-lived and highly sought-after variety. Its near-flawless preservation and crisp mirrored surfaces showcase the expert craftsmanship of the Philadelphia Mint during this defining moment in American coinage.

This PR68 example is ideal for the discerning collector seeking historical depth, rarity, and aesthetic excellence within the Kennedy Half Dollar series.
