[JohnLee]

That's a great question! The 1964 Kennedy half dollar is a very popular coin, largely because of its silver content.

Based on the information provided, a 1964 Kennedy half dollar is made of 90% silver. The actual amount of silver in the coin is 0.3617 troy ounces.

It's worth noting that the 1964 coin is unique in this regard. Later Kennedy half dollars had their silver content reduced to 40% and were eventually made with no silver at all, which is why the 1964 version is so sought after by collectors and investors.
