Apollo 11 50th Anniversary 1st Man on Moon JFK 100 Bday 24K Gold Clad 2-Coin Set

Here is your chance to own this John F. Kennedy privately minted 24 Karat Gold Plated non-monetary tribute 2-coin set. In response to the 100th Anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's Birth (1917-2017), the Merrick Mint has authorized the release of these new "JFK" designed tributes to honor the 35th President of the United States. The reverse commemorates the 50th Anniversary (1969-2019) of the first humans landing on the Moon as a part of NASA's Apollo 11 lunar mission. On May 25, 1961, JFK announced the goal of landing a man on the Moon before a joint session of Congress. His goal was achieved on July 20, 1969, when Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong stepped off the Lunar Module's ladder and onto the Moon's surface. These coins magnificently commemorate both Kennedy's 100th Birthday and the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11 (Kennedy's call for human exploration of the Moon).
