half dollars
Fifty-cent pieces
Half dollars are United States coins worth fifty cents—half the value of a dollar.
The most familiar design features President John F.
Kennedy, minted since 1964.
Though still legal tender, half dollars rarely circulate today; most end up in collections or casino slot machines.
She found a half dollar in her grandfather's coin jar.
