None of the Bicentennial half dollar coins made for general circulation contain any silver or are worth more than face value. Only Proof and collectors coins sold from the US Mint are worth more.
Check for the mint mark on that coin. If there isn't one, or it's a D, then it's NOT silver and still worth 50 cents. The only silver bicentennial halves were minted in San Francisco, but one of those isn't going to turn up in pocket change.
The coin is not a J.F.K. memorial half dollar. The U.S. mint has never made a "memorial" coin of any type for J.F.K.. It's just a common bicentennial half dollar and is worth 50 cents.
Regular face value
50 cents.
Not sure how much it is
The coin is face value
The bicentennial half dollar is extremely common, and is still worth 50 cents.
50 cents. They are in common circulation.
A Jefferson half dollar would be a real find, because Jefferson is on the nickel and JFK is on the half dollar. Regardless, a 1979 nickel is worth 5¢ and a 1979 half is worth exactly 10 times as much.
If you look on the back it's a HALF dollar, not a dollar. Value is about $2.00 for the silver content.
At present, it's worth around $10.50.
It's worth 50 cents.
JFK
Half a dollar. Idiot.
It is only worth 50 cents, it contains no silver and is in common circulation.
The coin is only 40% silver with a value of about $4.00
There's no such coin. JFK is on the half dollar.
