The Artistry Behind the Coin
Obverse: Gilroy Roberts' powerful portrait of President John F. Kennedy faces right, capturing the youthful vigor and determination that defined his presidency. The inscriptions "LIBERTY" arcs above, while "IN GOD WE TRUST" appears to the left and the date "1973" is positioned below the truncation of Kennedy's bust.
Reverse: Frank Gasparro's heraldic eagle design commands the reverse, clutching an olive branch and arrows in its talons. The Presidential Seal inspiration is evident, with a shield protecting the eagle's breast and fifty stars surrounding the design. "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "HALF DOLLAR" frame this patriotic imagery.
