The ½ Dollar Kennedy 2021, issued by the Denver Mint (D), continues the long-standing tradition of the Kennedy half-dollar series, first introduced in 1964 to commemorate the legacy of John F. Kennedy.
The obverse displays a bold and detailed portrait of Kennedy, created by Gilroy Roberts. The design is framed by the inscriptions "LIBERTY", "IN GOD WE TRUST", and the year "2021", emphasizing the historical and patriotic significance of the coin.
The reverse, designed by Frank Gasparro, features the Presidential Seal, showcasing an eagle with outstretched wings, holding an olive branch in one talon and a bundle of arrows in the other—symbolizing peace and strength. The 50 surrounding stars represent the unity of the nation. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "HALF DOLLAR" are placed along the edge.
Minted in cupro-nickel clad composition, this coin is a must-have for collectors, embodying both historical significance and outstanding craftsmanship.
