2014 Kennedy Set

 

This set was designed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy Half Dollar, first released in 1964, only a few short months after John F. Kennedy's untimely death.

 

The 50th Anniversary Kennedy Half Dollar Silver Coin Collection includes four Kennedy half dollar coins struck in 90% silver in four different finishes, one from each of the U.S. Mint's coin production facilities. This beautiful silver four coin set was designed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy half dollar first released in 1964. Each coin features the Kennedy portrait design on the obverse with the year 2014.


Set includes four Kennedy half–dollar coins struck in 90% Silver in four different finishes:
* Philadelphia (P) - Proof
* Denver (D) - Uncirculated
* San Francisco (S) - Enhanced Uncirculated
* West Point (W) - Reverse Proof

The designs on the coins replicate the portrait on the 1964 design.

 

Obverse: The design shows a portrait of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the youngest person ever elected to the office. U.S. Mint Sculptor-Engraver Gilroy Roberts based this profile on a portrait prepared for Kennedy's presidential medal. Roberts created his original 1964 design shortly after Kennedy's assassination.

 

Reverse: Frank Gasparro's rendition of The Great Seal of the United States and consists of a heraldic eagle with a shield on its breast, holding a symbolic olive branch and a bundle of 13 arrows. A ring of 50 stars surrounds the design

Sovereign coins backed by the U.S. government.


John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States was born and raised in Massachusetts and is most known for his the Bay of Pigs Invasion as well as the Cuban Missile Crisis in late 1962. He was assassinated on November 22, 1963 in Dallas, TX.

 

 

The four coins with different finishes are encapsulated by PCGS and secured in individual coin holders to insure their quality.
