1963 Gold Medal K-63A-62b, S.M. Federit Issue John F. Kennedy

Coin Details

Description

This 1963 gold medal cataloged as K-63A-62b is another variant in the S.M. Federit series honoring President John F. Kennedy. The "62b" designation distinguishes this from the "62a" variant, indicating a different size, die state, or edge treatment within the same basic design. The comprehensive Kennedy medal catalog (K-63A series) documents hundreds of distinct varieties produced by dozens of issuers, reflecting the unprecedented scale of medallic memorialization following Kennedy's assassination. Commemorative medals serve as primary historical documents, recording events and honoring individuals in a format that was often produced closer to the actual occurrence than published histories or official records. The gold Federit variants are among the more valuable Kennedy memorial medals due to their precious metal content and limited production runs.
