In honor of his memory, the US Mint quickly decided to create a new coin. Gilroy Roberts, the chief engraver, was tasked with designing the obverse, while Frank Gasparro, his assistant engraver, designed the reverse. The half dollar denomination was chosen at the request of Jacqueline Kennedy, who did not want to replace George Washington on the quarter dollar. To introduce the new coin, a congressional act was required due to a law stating that a coin must serve for up to 25 years before it can be replaced without congressional approval. The Kennedy Half Dollar bill was passed on December 30, 1963, and the first coins were struck in early 1964. Investing in the 1964 Silver Kennedy Half Dollars offers both collectors and investors a unique opportunity.
