This obverse side of the half dollar was crafted by Gilroy Roberts in 1964, as a parting gift when retiring as a chief engraver. On the bottom, you’ll see the year in which the coin was minted. The phrase In God We Trust is also struck on the sides of the neck. The legend Liberty is written around the rim of the coin, starting from the lower bottom to the lower right on the opposite edge. The obverse side of the coin has a striking portrait of the 35th President of the USA, John F. Mint: Philadelphia, Denver, San Francisco.1972 Half Dollar Details Image Credit: usacoinbook
