The 1970-D Kennedy Half Dollar was the last of the regular-strike silver-clad half dollars and the last Kennedy half intended for circulation that contained any silver at all. Its release took collectors by surprise, as it was available only in mint sets that year. The US Mint didn’t publicize this fact, and by the time collectors were hip to the brand new collectible half dollar, it was too late to order one. A total of 2,150,000 mint sets were produced, making the 1970-D the lowest-mintage business strike Kennedy half dollar until 2006 when the Mint could no longer wait out changing public consumption patterns.
