Design and Specifications of the 2017 Half Dollar

The 2017 Kennedy Half Dollar continues the long-standing tradition of honoring President John F. Kennedy, first introduced in 1964. This coin holds significant historical value as it represents over five decades of continuous production, making it one of the longest-running designs in U.S. coinage history.

In 2017, the U.S. Mint produced these coins primarily for collectors, as half dollars have not been widely circulated since 2002. This limited production strategy adds to the coin's numismatic interest.

Weight 11.34 grams
Diameter 30.61 mm
Mint Marks D, S, P
Composition 91.67% copper, 8.33% nickel (clad over a pure copper core)
Obverse Design Portrait of John F. Kennedy, designed by Gilroy Roberts
Reverse Design Presidential Coat of Arms, designed by Frank Gasparro

Rarity Factors and Value Drivers

Condition plays a crucial role in the value of 2017 Kennedy Half Dollars, especially for circulation strikes. While these coins were not intended for circulation, handling and storage can still affect their condition.

For circulation strikes, coins in MS65 or higher grades can command significant premiums due to their pristine condition. Proof coins are expected to be in high grades, with PR69 and PR70 specimens being highly sought after by collectors.

Factors such as sharp strike details, full luster, and absence of contact marks contribute to higher grades and, consequently, higher values. For proof coins, cameo and deep cameo contrasts between frosted devices and mirrored fields can significantly enhance desirability and value.

2. Set completion: Many collectors seek these coins to complete annual sets, driving demand.

3. Historical significance: The ongoing tribute to JFK maintains interest in the series.

4. Limited circulation: The fact that these coins were not widely circulated adds to their collectible appeal.

5. Proof quality: For proof issues, exceptional cameo contrast can significantly increase value.

While not rare, the limited mintage compared to earlier years and the coin's status as a collector's item contribute to its numismatic interest and potential for long-term value appreciation.
