1986 Kennedy Half Dollar
The 1986 Kennedy Half Dollar saw mintages dip to low levels due to the decreased demand for the denomination. For the remainder of the series, mintages would remain extremely low until the US Mint eventually stopped minting the coins for circulation altogether. In the following year, this situation occurred for a single year when production of the denomination was restricted to the number necessary for inclusion in US Mint Sets.
