    I am unaware of a Kennedy Half Dollar for this year. I believe only the Enduring Liberty Half Dollar is being minted this year. Who knows what next year will bring...

    To answer your question, however, yes, I am aware of people still collecting the Kennedy half dollar series. I see folks come into the shop on a regular basis asking about them. They are filling up their Dansco books. I do not know of anyone in my region putting together high-end registry sets.

    Kennedy will be back next year, and it's reverse that we've become used to won't be used anymore.

    I’m excited to see the new obverse in-hand.

    This is pretty much where my Kennedy collection started and ended. The album has seen better days! 🤣 😂

    Looks like I'll collect 1 each P&D of the 2027 Kennedy half to showcase the new obverse/reverse, and then stop collecting them for myself & kids/grandkids. Just too tired of the constant series of quarters & now halves created by Congress & the Mint. Might be another matter if they were issued for general circulation and I could get them at banks or in change, but I'm not going to waste my money & effort at this point on feeding the profit machine the Mint's turned into........... :(
