The US half dollar minted since 1964 has John Kennedy's portrait. Those minted in 1964 are 90% pure silver. Those from 1965 to 1970 are 40% silver. All minted after 1970 (except those included in silver proof sets) are copper-nickel and contain no silver.

US Mint "Prestige" proof sets include 90% silver Kennedy Halves, although all others versions of the coin including standard proofs are made of copper-nickel.

If it were just uncirculated it might have been worth about $2-4. But the plating makes it an altered coin with little or no collector interest so its value is reduced to that of the underlying copper-nickel coin, 50 cents.

It is in common circulation, and unless in a mint set it is only worth 50 cents.

As you can tell by looking at the edge, all 1974 half dollars were made of copper-nickel rather than silver.

If this sentence fragment is attempting to ask about the coin's value, it's worth 50 cents.
