Franklin Silver Half Dollars were only struck for a mere 16 years. The popular series was suddenly cut short at the end of 1963, when John F. Kennedy's shocking assassination led Congress to immediately create a new half dollar as a memorial to the martyred president. This set contains the LAST 1963 Silver Franklin Half Dollar, paired with the FIRST EVER Kennedy Silver Half Dollar struck in 1964. Set into a full color, informative collector’s portfolio, this fascinating set also includes a FREE 1776-1976 Bicentennial Kennedy Half Dollar as a bonus!
