The Silver Tone Half Dollar Coin Pocket Watch is the classic time piece. A simple but sleek silver tone case houses a genuine United States half dollar. The 1964 "First Year of Issue" JFK Half Dollar was the only JFK Half Dollar minted of .900 Solid Silver! It was intended as a memorial to the assasination of President John F. Kennedy. This half dollar is then lavishly layered in pure 24k Gold. The coin is secure in the pocket watch casing and opens to quartz style and second sweeping hand over classic Roman numerals. The pocket watch is 1 7/8 inches in diameter and hangs from a 30 inch chain with a 3 inch extender and a lobster-claw clasp. This historical high polished time piece displays the beauty of a genuine US coin on the front and then brushed finish on the back, which may be engraved and personalized. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
