The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: Gilroy Roberts' iconic portrait of President John F. Kennedy faces left, capturing the youthful vigor and determination that defined his presidency. The word "LIBERTY" arcs above, while "IN GOD WE TRUST" appears to the left of Kennedy's profile. The year 1996 is positioned below the portrait, marking this specific issue in the series.

Reverse: Frank Gasparro's presidential seal design features a heraldic eagle with shield, grasping an olive branch and arrows in its talons. Fifty stars encircle the eagle, representing the unity of the states. The denomination "HALF DOLLAR" appears below, while "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" crowns the design.

Why Collectors Choose This Set

The Kennedy Half Dollar series remains one of America's most collected modern coins, bridging the gap between circulating coinage and numismatic treasures. By acquiring both mint marks from 1996, you're building a complete date-and-mintmark collection that tells the full story of that year's production. With the U.S. Mint's reduced production of half dollars for circulation, keeping your collection current ensures you won't miss this increasingly scarce series. Whether you're completing a date run or starting a new collection, this matched pair offers both historical significance and the satisfaction of owning pristine examples from both major U.S. Mints.
