KENNEDY HALF DOLLARS (1964-PRESENT)

Gilroy Roberts, former Chief Engraver of the US Mint, designed the observe of this coin. His stylized initials are on the truncation of the forceful bust of President John F. Kennedy. The reverse, which uses the presidential coat of arms for the motif, is the work of Chief Engraver Frank Gasparro (who died in 2001).
