    JFK Half Dollar Coin Ring

    Honor the spirit of leadership, courage, and American greatness.

    Our JFK Half Dollar Coin Rings are hand-forged from authentic U.S. Mint half dollars, minted beginning in 1964 to commemorate President John F. Kennedy.

    Carrying forward the strength, optimism, and sacrifice he embodied, these rings are more than jewelry — they’re wearable history, crafted to inspire every day.

    🪙 About the JFK Half Dollar Coin:

    • First minted in 1964, shortly after President Kennedy’s assassination

    • 1964 coins are 90% silver; 1965–1970 coins are 40% silver

    • Features the profile of President John F. Kennedy on the obverse

    • Heraldic eagle with shield and olive branch on the reverse

    We primarily use 1964 90% silver half dollars for maximum weight, beauty, and historic significance.

    🎯 Why Our JFK Half Dollar Rings Are Different:

    • ✅ Forged from original silver Kennedy half dollars (mostly 1964s)

    • ✅ Preserves the President’s profile and American eagle where possible

    • ✅ Custom sized and finished for a lifetime of wear

    • ✅ Free lifetime resizing and refinishing included

    This isn't a replica.

    It's a real connection to American leadership and history.

    🛠️ What to Expect:

    • Each ring is made to order using genuine vintage half dollars.

    • Standard production time: 5–7 business days.

    • Full coin detail is preserved as much as possible during the forging process.

    📩 Year Requests:

    Unfortunately, high-silver-content JFK Half Dollars suitable for jewelry worn next to the skin were only minted in 1964.

    ⚠️ Important Notes:

    • Scrap silver from the forging process is retained by Silver State Foundry — you are purchasing a handcrafted ring, not raw bullion.

    • Finished rings typically weigh around 10–12 grams depending on size.
