Rarity Factors and Value Drivers
Condition plays a crucial role in determining the value of 2001 Kennedy Half Dollars. While circulated examples hold little premium over face value, uncirculated coins in high grades can command significant premiums.
For circulation strikes, coins in MS65 and above are desirable, with MS67 and MS68 examples being particularly valuable. Proof coins are valued based on their cameo contrast and preservation, with PR69 and PR70 Deep Cameo specimens being highly sought after.

Luster and strike quality are important factors in determining the value of uncirculated 2001 Kennedy Half Dollars. Coins with full, cartwheel luster and sharp details, especially on Kennedy's hair and the eagle's feathers, are more desirable.
For proof coins, the depth of the cameo contrast between the frosty devices and mirrored fields significantly impacts value. Deep Cameo proofs with flawless surfaces command the highest premiums.
While not typically collected for toning, attractively toned examples can sometimes fetch a premium among specialized collectors.
