The first United States silver half-dollars were minted in 1794, long before the Liberty Walking type came to light. They were authorized by an act of Congress on April 2, 1792. Many different varieties (die and other) exist for the early types of half-dollars.
From 1794 until 1807, the United States minted three different types of half dollars: Flowing Hair (1794-5), Draped Bust with a Small Eagle Reverse (1796-7), and Draped Bust with a Heraldic Eagle Reverse (1801-7). The Capped Bust type, minted between 1807-1839 had a lettered edge until 1837. Liberty Seated type (1839-1891) and Liberty Head type (1892-1915), designed by Christian Goebrecht and Charles Barber respectively, were the last two types of half-dollars before Walking Liberties were struck in 1916.
In 1948, the United States began minting Franklin-Liberty Bell silver half-dollars and continued to do so until the advent of the Kennedy half-dollar in 1964. This design continues today, but the coin has undergone several composition changes. In 1964 only, the Kennedy half-dollars were composed of 90% silver as had the previous issues of silver half-dollars.
The next year, U.S. Congress passed the Coinage Act of 1965, which reduced the amount of silver in our nation's silver coinage to 40% silver. With an outer composition of 80% silver and 20% copper bonded to a core of 20.9% silver and 79.1% copper, each Kennedy half-dollar from 1965-70 contained 0.1479 ounces of pure silver. In 1971, the metal make-up was again changed to remove all silver and has remained the same since.
