1968-S U.S. Mint Proof Set with 40% Silver JFK Half Dollar

This remarkable 1968-S U.S. Mint Proof Set is a collector’s dream! It includes five stunning coins, each meticulously struck in brilliant proof quality. The highlight of this set is the iconic 40% Silver JFK Half Dollar, a true gem that captures the spirit of a pivotal era in American history.

The Return of Mint Marks: In 1968, the U.S. Mint reintroduced mint marks to its coins after a three-year hiatus. The 1968-S Proof Set marked this significant change, as it shifted production from the Philadelphia Mint to the San Francisco Assay Office.

Silver-Clad Beauty: The Kennedy half dollar in this set is a 40% silver-clad coin, making it noticeably brighter than other coins like the Jefferson nickel and Roosevelt dime. Its lustrous appearance adds to its allure for collectors.

Improved Packaging: The 1968-S Proof Set came in an improved plastic hard case, allowing easy viewing of both the obverse and reverse of each coin.
