Designation: 1968-D United States Kennedy Half Dollar Business Strike in Protective Capsule Mintage Year: 1968 Mint Location: Denver Mint (The "D" Mint Mark sits cleanly on the obverse, centered directly below the truncation of Kennedy's neck and above the "9" in the date) Denomination: Fifty Cents ($0.50 USD) Composition: 40% Silver, 60% Copper (Contains approximately 0.1479 Troy Ounce of pure silver) Grade/Condition: Lightly Circulated / About Uncirculated (AU Details – Ungraded / Raw) Design & Mint Identification: This coin showcases the standard business-strike composition issued by the Denver Branch Mint. It features the signature obverse mint mark layout introduced in 1968, moving the branch identifier from the reverse side to its modern obverse position. Condition & Eye Appeal Notes: The coin exhibits highly attractive eye appeal with strong, bright silver flash and traces of its original mint luster remaining in the protected fields. It displays very minor, honest wear consistent with brief handling in circulation, notably visible as light smoothing on the hair lines directly above Kennedy’s ear and minor flattening on the eagle's central shield lines on the reverse. The surfaces are exceptionally clean with a beautifully developing golden-rim patina.
