Very nice, I just ordered a set of the smaller 2016s. I like the REV being close to the same the same as the Kennedy half. I like how both sides remind me of two great Presidents of similar mind.
BTW - somehow I cannot believe totally forgot I had the following. It was made by the guy who made NORFED/Liberty dollars. Mine is tucked away so I had to take the images from the website.
Absolutely beautiful Earle42!! I'm glad that you're you posted them. I forgot to ask you, is the NLD that's stamped on the coin have anything to do with NORFED?
I was just thinking, I don't think that you have ever seen so many different coins, tokens and medals of any one person as I have seen of Donald J. Trump! Fascinating!!

Interestingly, Obama coins with a similar design do not have a "mint mark".
Edit: For those who want the set, ebay search 'Trump Coins Gold Silver' - arrange results from lowest to highest - select 'buy it now' - scroll down until you see the set ( current best price is $1.95 )

I am not sure, but think it stand for NORFED Liberty Dollar.
BTW...Anyone not knowing the NORFED story should look it up. Its one of the most blatant cases of power abuse & final justice to be seen in recent numismatic times.
Plus the Liberty Dollars are some of the most beautiful classic-like designs made for quite some time (note my avatar).

Hey no politics! You used that "th*nk" word which is definitely political in nature
My collection of five President Kennedy special Government medals (procured by the White House Office for President Kennedy's use). These medals functioned as a presidential apprecitory award. 44 mm in diameter and in bronze. Only 300 were struck. Designer was Frank Gasparro.
These medals are presidential numismatic artifacts. One had to be in good favor with President Kennedy to be awarded one. (You could not buy these medals from the U.S. Mint.)
Medals are Class 5 of the President of the United States (POTUS) special Government medal (sGm) series. http://www.potus-sgm.com/
Top center specimen: This is the Mary Gallagher specimen (personal secretary to Mrs. Kennedy). As the current owner, I have two degrees of separation from President Kennedy (President Kennedy-to-Mary Gallagher-to-DrDarryl).
Right middle specimen: This is the Robert L. White specimen. Robert L. White had one of the largest and most significant private collections of the President Kennedy effects.
Right bottom specimen: This is the U.S. Army Msgt Jaynes specimen. He was NCOIC of the President's motorpool. Acquired from his granddaughter. As the current owner, I have three degrees of separation from President Kennedy (President Kennedy-to-Msgt Jaynes-to-Grandaughter-to-DrDarryl). Specimen is Mint in Bag.
Left bottom specimen: Unknown provenance, but Mint in Bag.
Left middle specimen: Unknown provenance. First to be acquired in this collection and from a Washington DC dealer.
