Echoes of Empire: A Coin Museum

The U.S. half dollar is a large 50-cent coin most famously bearing President John F. Kennedy’s image since 1964.

We collect, exhibit, and interpret historic U.S. coins to educate and inspire the public through accessible displays and engaging stories of America's monetary and cultural history.

Half Dollar (50 Cents)

The half dollar has a rich history dating back to 1794, with various iconic designs over the centuries. Since 1964, it has featured President John F. Kennedy, introduced shortly after his assassination as a tribute to his legacy. Though not widely used in everyday transactions today, the half dollar remains popular in ceremonial events and among numismatists. Older versions, such as the Franklin and Walking Liberty halves, are prized for their silver content and artistic design. Educators can use the coin to explore themes of presidential history, mid-20th-century America, and the role of symbolism in currency.

The 1967 Liberty Quarter, part of the Washington Quarter series, is a key piece in American coin history. First introduced in 1932 to commemorate the 200th birthday of George Washington, this coin continued to be a staple of everyday use for decades.

By 1967, the U.S. Mint had transitioned from 90% silver to a clad composition of copper and nickel, due to the rising cost of silver. As a result, the 1967 quarter contains no silver, making it a symbol of economic adaptation during the late 1960s.
