$5-$10 in a novelty shop. $2-$3 (plus shipping) on eBay.
1. Half DOLLAR, just like it's spelled on the back of the coin
2. 1776-1976, just like the date is shown on the front of the coin.
It's a circulation coin from the Bicentennial celebrations in 1975 and 1976. Hundreds of millions were minted and most ended up being saved as keepsakes. Unless it's in proof or uncirculated condition, it's only worth 50¢.

How much is the face value 1776 bicentennial Kennedy half dollar worth if head is stamped on front and independence hall on back?
The face value of a 1976 Bicentennial half dollar is fifty cents.To clear things up:- The date is 1776-1976. These coins were struck in both 1975 and 1976 to honor the Bicentennial. All carry the same dual date.- ALL Kennedy halves have JFK's portrait, that's why they're called Kennedy halves, LOL!- Coins are said to be struck or minted, not "stamped"- The front of the coin is called the "obverse". That's the "heads" side for American coins so you would expect the portrait to be there. The back is called the "reverse"Those items out of the way, there were so many of these coins minted and saved that anything you find in circulation will only be worth 50 cents. If the coin is in uncirculated or proof condition it might be worth a couple of bucks.

These coins all carry a dual date "1776-1976", and the building is Independence Hall, hardly the same thing as Kennedy's home.
