	Half dollar (U.S. coin) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Half Dollar of the United States has been produced nearly every year since the inception of the United States Mint in 1794.
		The Kennedy half-dollar design, however was minted in coin silver in 1964 and in a silver-clad composition in 1965–1970.
		Initially the Kennedy halves were hoarded for sentimental reasons and because they were recognized as the only precious metal US coin remaining in circulation.

	Franklin half dollar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Kennedy Half
		Half dollars of one type or the other had to be ready for coining early in the new year to avert a worsening of this shortage.
		After protracted debate during 1969-70, a bill was finally passed near the end of 1970 which called for the coining of half dollars in the same composition used since 1965 for the dime and quarter: two outer layers of copper and nickel bonded to an inner core of pure copper.
		The 1970-D half dollars were struck only to fill that year's orders for mint sets, pending the change to copper-nickel coinage; the silver-clad, bicentennial halves were likewise coined only for collectors.
