Designer: Gilroy Roberts / Frank Gasparro
Content: 40% Silver, 60% Copper
Weight: 11.50 grams
Diameter: 30.61 millimeters
Edge: Reeded (150 reeds)
Mint: Denver (while generally classified as a Philadelphia minted coin due to its lack of mint mark, it has been reported that all 40% silver business strike Kennedy half dollars were minted at the Denver facility only, from Dec. 30, 1965 until the end of 1970)
Production Strikes: 108,984,932
General Type Description: In 1965, because of rising costs, the Mint began reducing the amount of silver in the coins it produced. Silver was eliminated completely from the Dimes and Quarter Dollars, in favor of a new composition consisting of a copper core sandwiched between outer layers of copper-nickel. For the Half Dollar, the Mint reduced the amount of silver from 90% to 40%, but retained much of the whitish, silvery appearance of former years by placing most of the silver in the outer layers. The new Half Dollars became known as “Clad” Half Dollars, but this term is also used as a nickname for 1965 and later Dimes, Quarter Dollars, and One Dollars (clearly, the term refers more to the layered structure of the coins than to their metal content). This series ended in 1970, after which the composition was matched to the copper-nickel clad alloy of the Dimes and Quarter Dollars. No 1970 Half Dollars were produced for circulation; they are only available in Mint or Proof Sets. Source: Guth, Ron. PCGS CoinFacts)
Specific Issue Description: This is the second year that the Mint struck Silver Clad Kennedy Half Dollars for circulation. While the coin includes no mint mark, indicative of a Philadelphia minted coin, it has been reported that all 40% silver business strike Kennedy half dollars were only minted at the Denver facility from Dec. 30, 1965 until the end of 1970.
Exemplar Description: Lustrous and mostly white with some light, golden toning adorning both the obverse and reverse sides. One of only nine graded MS67 with only a single coin graded higher (as of 5/2016), this was acquired 8/2014 from David Shelton.

This is the second year that the Mint struck Silver Clad Kennedy Half Dollars for circulation. The Mint struck Silver Clad Kennedy Half Dollars from 1965 - 1970.
The 1966-P Kennedy Half Dollar has the second lowest mintage for any Silver Clad Half Dollar struck for circulation from 1965 to 1970.
The 1966-P Kennedy Half Dollar appears to be common in grades up to MS64. In MS65 it becomes a bit tough with several hundred graded in this condition. In MS66, it is a bit scarce with possibly less than 200 examples known in this condition. In MS67 they become really scarce with probably less than 20 coins existing in this condition with fewer being finer.
