The most recent President on bills or coins is John F. Kennedy on the rarely used (these days) half dollar coin. These were introduced less than a year after he was assassinated.

Ja. 1964. Ordered by LBJ. Last year half dollars, quarters and dimes were 90% silver.

I have one of the last silver dollars struck in 1964. They are pretty common. You can still find one in your change now and then.

One time when I was working at WalMart we found a penny in the parking lot that was literally broken/cut in half.I highly doubt it would of counted as a half cent but I picked it up anyways to add to my collection just because.
