1964 Kennedy Half Dollar .90 Silver Coin Ring

This ring is crafted from an AUTHENTIC 1964 Kennedy half dollar. (The 1st year the Kennedy coin was minted and the last year the 90% silver coins were minted). The Kennedy half dollar, first minted in 1964, is a fifty-cent coin currently issued by the United States Mint. Intended as a memorial to the assassinated 35th President of the United States John F. Kennedy, it was authorized by Congress just over a month after his death. Use of existing works by Mint sculptors Gilroy Roberts and Frank Gasparro allowed dies to be prepared quickly, and striking of the new coins began in January 1964. Celebrate 60th milestones with this exquisite, handcrafted creation—a tangible piece of the past transformed into a statement of love and longevity. Birthday, Anniversary, Graduation • Handcrafted in the USA • Veteran Owned & Operated • Authentic High-Quality Coins I purchased it from this gentleman on Etsy. This to replace my HS Graduation ring. The Kennedy connection meant a lot as well since I can remember and relive the exact time President Kennedy was shot. Chemistry class in my Catholic High School. At 77 now, I am overriding the sentimentality in so many things that my kids don't want to deal with after I am gone. I'd much rather sell things on Poshmark to friends who want to give it new life. Wow, sorry for the ramble, downsizing is quite the emotional experience.
