DrDarryl Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 03/22/2016 06:43 am Still performing on-going research of these medals. This is an entombed card and medal. In my opinion, this is a prize of all Kennedy numismatic issues from the U.S. Mint/White House. The autograph presidential card seals the deal. (And confirms my numismatic research for a new class of U.S. Mint medals as true-to-life presidential artifacts.) A "Kennedy medal awarded by Kennedy himself". Report this Post to the Staff

DrDarryl Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 09/07/2017 9:28 pm Most collectors believe collecting U.S. Mint medals is dull and rather boring . . . What if . . . . . . a U.S. Mint medal was struck specifically for use by the President of the United States. . . . the original U.S. Mint medal mintage was a mere 300 specimens. . . . the design on the U.S. Mint medal identifies the President of the United States as the owner and awarder of the medal. . . . you locate such a medal. . . . the medal you located and purchased establishes you with three degrees of separation from the President of the United States. . . . the President of the United States is John F. Kennedy. I made this purchased a few months ago and I made sure that the granddaughter provided me with the proper documentation that established an unbroken chain of legal ownership. See the image. This is one of many reasons why I research and collect POTUS sGm . . . Provenance starts with the U.S. Mint, then the President, then the original recipient, then a heir of the original recipient, then the persistent collector (me). As the third legal owner of this medal, the medal itself is three degrees separated from President Kennedy. Those not familiar with the term "six degrees of separation" ... google it and look for the Wikipedia definition. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 188740 Posts	Posted 09/08/2017 11:03 am Many of us like to ponder that our coins were one held by someone famous or important to history. However, you have something that you know was in Kennedy's hands, if only briefly before he awarded it. That is awesome!

DrDarryl Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 08/06/2019 07:31 am The prize in my POTUS research collection. Tied to President Kennedy's historic trip to Ireland. This is the only medal I've so far seen with its original presentation case. A truly remarkable presidential numismatic artifact. Redacted for privacy of the widow. Her signature is covered by the presentation case. An internet search of the original awardee showcases his lengthy Federal service career and his tour at the US embassy in Dublin, Ireland. I recently purchased my 8th specimen (not shown). Edited by DrDarryl 08/06/2019 07:35 am Report this Post to the Staff
