The ½ Dollar Kennedy 2021, minted at the Philadelphia Mint (P), is part of the iconic series honoring the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy. First introduced in 1964, this coin remains a symbol of American heritage.
The obverse features a finely detailed portrait of John F. Kennedy, designed by Gilroy Roberts. Above the portrait is the inscription "LIBERTY", while the national motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" appears on both sides. The date "2021" is placed below.
On the reverse, designed by Frank Gasparro, the Presidential Seal takes center stage. The heraldic eagle, clutching an olive branch and arrows, is encircled by 50 stars representing the states. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "HALF DOLLAR" complete the design.
Struck in cupro-nickel clad composition, this coin is an excellent addition for collectors of modern U.S. coinage, offering a tribute to one of the most beloved American presidents.
