Outstanding, Who carved it?
Wow. Love the relief on that carving.
I like that!
before someone else says it, I will:

I had a fleeting moment of terror when I saw that @FredWeinberg had posted - I thought he was going to tell us that the host coin had some valuable error on it.
I like the carving, but it would be better without the wire brushed reverse.
And that's no bull!

You have to understand theses are not coin collectors, they are carvers.

outstanding!
But Kennedy was not in the Bull Moose party.
What a stupid post. FRANKLIN !!
Off to flagellation.
That would be Franklin on a 1963-D half, and he wasn't in the Bull Moose party either.

I also assume he wanted the reverse to match the color/patina of the obverse....
Once it is turned into a work of art I don't think the normal rules of coin handling apply...
Thank you

Very nice!

Amazing. What craft.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
That is super cool! Better than some of the current engravers offerings from the Mint by a long shot!
