2015-P John F. Kennedy总统美元

《总统美元硬币法》（公法109-145）于2005年12月22日通过了法律。该法案迫使财政部长分别纪念国家过去的总统及其配偶，以提高1美元的币的流通，并创建新的Bullion Coin”。

The Presidential Dollar Coin Act (Public Law 109-145) was passed into law on December 22, 2005. The Act compelled the Secretary of the Treasury to “mint coins in commemoration of each of the Nation’s past Presidents and their spouses, respectively, to improve circulation of the $1 coin, [and] to create a new bullion coin”. The architects of the law, citing the success of the 50 States Commemorative Coin Program (31 U.S.C. 5112(l)), believed that the introduction of regularly changing designs would radically increase demand for a $1 coin, which despite early signs of consumer interest, had failed to achieve widespread use after its debut in 2000.

《总统美元硬币法》（公法109-145）于2005年12月22日通过了法律。该法案迫使财政部长分别纪念国家过去的总统及其配偶，以提高1美元的币的流通，并创建新的Bullion Coin”。法律的建筑师援引50个州纪念硬币计划的成功（31 USC 5112（L））认为，尽管引入定期变化的设计将从根本上增加对1美元的硬币的需求，尽管消费者的早期迹象迹象表现出了1美元的迹象，但在2000年在2000年首次亮相后仍未实现广泛使用。

The first four Presidential Dollar designs debuted in 2007, but–like the Sacagawea Dollar that preceded them–the coins found little public support in commerce. In 2011, the United States Mint curtailed the production of the Presidential (and Native American) dollar coins and began to strike them solely for the purpose of selling them to collectors.

前四个总统美元设计于2007年首次亮相，但就像在他们之前的萨卡加威尔美元一样 - 硬币几乎没有公众的支持。 2011年，美国造币厂削减了总统（和美国原住民）美元硬币的生产，并开始仅出于将其出售给收藏家而罢工。

The 2015-P John F. Kennedy Presidential Dollar is the third of four Presidential $1 coins issued that year.

2015-P John F. Kennedy总统美元是当年发行的四个总统$ 1硬币中的第三个。

The coin was struck as a numismatic collectible and not produced in quantity for circulation. Demand for the popular president elevated the mintage figures for this issue over that of the other 2015 releases.

该硬币被击中是一种计算收藏品，而不是在循环数量中产生的。对大众总统的需求提高了此问题的铸币数字，而不是2015年的其他版本。

The Mint sold the issue in Mint sets, special Presidential Dollar sets, bags, and rolls. As each of these items was sold at a premium over face value, any release of this issue into circulation would be purposeful on part of a collector, or incidental on the part of someone who had been given one as a gift or who had some other reason for spending them.

薄荷以薄荷套装，特殊的总统美元套装，袋子和卷卖出了问题。由于这些物品中的每一个都以优于面值出售，因此该问题的任何发行者都将是有目的的，或者是收藏家的一部分，或者是被送给一份礼物或有其他理由花费它们的人的偶然性。

The typical example as struck would fall between the grades MS63 to MS66 if grading standards were strictly enforced. PCGS and NGC graded a considerable number of Presidential Dollars for modern coin marketers during the series’ nine-year run. By 2015, collector enthusiasm for Presidential Dollars had waned and even though Kennedy was a popularly remembered president, submission numbers for uncirculated dollars paled in comparison to earlier Presidential Dollar releases, especially the Missing Edge Lettering mint errors that escaped the Mint in large quantity in the first year of the series.

如果严格执行分级标准，则构成的典型例子将介于MS63至MS66级之间。在系列九年的运行中，PCG和NGC为现代硬币营销商的总统美元分为大量。到2015年，对总统美元的收藏家热情已经减少，尽管肯尼迪是一位备受纪念的总统，但与早期总统美元发行的票据相比，未流通的美元的提交数字，尤其是涉及系列第一年中大量薄荷的失踪边缘刻字薄荷错误。

Both PCGS and NGC report examples at MS68. PCGS, which has graded fewer examples, reports 10 in the grade at the time of this writing and distinguishes the edge lettering orientation – a minor detail, in our opinion. NGC reports 101 grading events at the MS68 level. At MS68, expect dealers to ask between $350 and $500 for an example. At MS67, coins are much more affordably priced at between $25 and $30. Is this a reasonable price to pay for a not-intended for circulation coin with a $1 face value and nine million examples struck? That all depends on your collecting goals.

PCG和NGC在MS68上报告了示例。 PCG的示例较少的PCG报告在撰写本文时报告了10年级，并区分了边缘字体方向 - 我们认为这是一个较小的细节。 NGC在MS68级别报告了101个分级事件。在MS68，期望经销商向示例询问350美元至500美元。在MS67时，硬币的价格在25至30美元之间。这是一个合理的代价，用于支付1美元的面值和900万个例子的不间断的流通硬币吗？这一切都取决于您的收集目标。

Time will prove whether the “golden dollar” alloy holds up well or not. Any human contact and environmental exposure will hasten the appearance of tarnish. Some may tone in attractive ways, but this is not typical. At the very least, an encapsulated example is preserved to some degree. If your goal is to complete a set, we would recommend certified for preservation and raw 2015-P Kennedy Dollars in rolls or flips if affordability is the deciding factor. The going rate for a loose coin is about $3.50.

时间将证明“黄金美元”合金是否持有良好。任何人类的接触和环境暴露都会加快tarnish的外观。有些人可能会以有吸引力的方式进行调整，但这并不是典型的。至少，在某种程度上保留了一个封装的示例。如果您的目标是完成一套，我们建议通过可负担性是决定性因素进行保存和RAW 2015-P肯尼迪奖金或翻转的认证。松散硬币的运行速度约为3.50美元。

Obverse:

ververse：

Inspired by Aaron Shikler’s Official Presidential Portrait of John F. Kennedy, Don Everhart’s obverse for the Kennedy $1 coin offers up an unusual and somber image of the slain President. On the coin, Kennedy looks downward and to the left. The muscles on his face appear strained, as if he is deep in thought. Kennedy’s hair is neatly groomed, his part is accentuated. His coat is form-fitting. The designer’s initials DE are located on Kennedy’s left shoulder. The coin’s inscriptions wrap around the rim of the coin and read: JOHN F. KENNEDY, IN GOD WE TRUST, 35th PRESIDENT, and 1961-1963.

受亚伦·舒克勒（Aaron Shikler）的正式总统肖像约翰·肯尼迪（John F.在硬币上，肯尼迪向下看向左侧。他脸上的肌肉似乎很紧张，好像他深深地思考。肯尼迪的头发整齐地修饰，他的角色突出了。他的外套是合身的。设计师的缩写DE位于肯尼迪的左肩上。硬币的铭文围绕着硬币的边缘，并阅读：约翰·肯尼迪（John F. Kennedy），《我们信任的上帝》，第35位总统和1961 - 1963年。
