1977-S Kennedy Half Dollar DCAM Gem Proof
Condition: This specimen is identified as a Gem Proof with a Deep Cameo (DCAM) finish, characterized by highly frosted devices and deeply mirrored fields that create a sharp contrast. The coin is housed in a protective holder from the International Numismatic Bureau. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this coin features the "S" mint mark. The metal content consists of a copper-nickel clad composition, featuring an inner core of pure copper and outer layers of copper-nickel. Historically, the Kennedy Half Dollar series was launched in 1964 to honor President John F. Kennedy. This 1977-S issue represents the first year the series returned to the standard eagle reverse design following the Bicentennial commemorative era. As a proof strike, it was produced using specially polished dies and planchets intended for collectors rather than general circulation.
