2009-P Kennedy Half Dollar (Special Satin Finish)
The 2009-P Kennedy half dollar stands out in the modern United States coinage series due to its distinctive special satin finish. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this fifty-cent piece features a composition of copper and nickel outer layers bonded to a core of pure copper. This particular finish gives the coin a soft, matte luster that highlights the intricate details of its classic design. On the obverse, the coin displays the bust of President John F. Kennedy, designed by Gilroy Roberts. The reverse, created by Frank Gasparro, features the traditional heraldic eagle clutching a bundle of arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other. Bold inscriptions surrounding the reverse design include "UNITED STATES," "HALF DOLLAR," and the legendary motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
