1995-S Kennedy Half Dollar Gem Proof
The 1995 Kennedy half dollar stands as a remarkable example of modern American coinage, produced at the San Francisco Mint. This particular coin features a proof finish, which highlights the sharp details and contrasting surfaces of the engraving. The composition of the coin consists of an outer layer of copper and nickel, which is permanently bonded to a central core of pure copper. On the obverse side, the coin features a portrait of President John F. Kennedy, originally sculpted by Gilroy Roberts. This side also displays the inscriptions "IN GOD WE TRUST" and the year of production, "1995", alongside the "S" mint mark indicating its San Francisco origin. The reverse side, created by Frank Gasparro, features a heraldic eagle clutching both a bundle of arrows and an olive branch. Surrounding this central design are the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "HALF DOLLAR", framing the symbolic eagle.
