At Provident Metals, we’re thrilled to showcase the enduring elegance of the JFK Half Dollar, a cherished piece of American numismatic heritage. Introduced in 1964, this distinguished coin stands as the largest denomination of US coinage in regular circulation, boasting a design that’s both contemporary and iconic. Its substantial size makes it an ideal candidate for inclusion in enhanced collectibles, such as these exquisite gold-plated sets, now available for purchase online.
Highlights:
Crafted in remembrance of President Kennedy’s enduring legacy following his tragic assassination in 1963, the JFK Half Dollar stands as a poignant symbol of his impact on American history. Collaborating artists Gilroy Roberts and Frank Gasparro played integral roles in bringing these designs to life.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 2024 JFK Half Dollar, you’ll find a striking portrait of President Kennedy, originally conceptualized by Roberts for the Presidential Medal Series. The inscriptions include LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, 2024, and either the D or P mint mark.
Reverse
Meanwhile, the reverse features a modified version of the presidential seal, meticulously crafted by Gasparro, complete with the emblematic bald eagle, national shield, arrows of war, and olive branch of peace. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and HALF DOLLAR.
History
In 1965, following the retirement of Gilroy Roberts, Frank Gasparro was appointed as the new Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. As Chief Engraver, he was responsible for overseeing the design and production of coins and medals issued by the Mint. In addition to the Kennedy half dollar, Gasparro designed several other coins during his tenure as Chief Engraver, including the reverse of the Lincoln Memorial cent, minted from 1959 to 2008, and the obverse of the Eisenhower dollar, minted from 1971 to 1978.
Ordering
This set includes two 2024 JFK Half Dollars, each housed in its own protective capsule and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. One coin bears the P mint mark from the Philadelphia Mint, while the other features the D mint mark from the Denver Mint. Both coins shimmer with exquisite 24-karat gold plating, making them standout additions to any collection.
