Best Answer

That particular series of the Kennedy Half Dollar was stamped 1776 – 1976 to commemorate the Bi-Centennial anniversary celebrating 200 years of freedom.

Bicentennial quarters and dollars also have double dates. These coins were issued in both 1975 and 1976, but all carry the 1776-1976 dates. The only coins to carry a 1975 date were cents, nickels, and dimes.
