See attached images for 1971-S Proof Eisenhower Dollar findings of "A First Strike, First Day's Strike, and Presentation Specimen"
I visited the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington DC on August 26, 2022.On the 2nd floor, in the President Portraits exhibit, I was delighted to see a partial collection of Native American Peace medals.
These are a few of my original source research notes from 1960 periodicals for the Class 2 President Eisenhower Appreciation Medals. I'm still researching this previously undocumented US Mint medal series.
Most collectors, numismatists and dealers interchange the terms provenance and pedigree. This should stop. POTUS Numismatic Artifacts treat these two terms with a precise difference when it comes to "Evidential Proof".

US Mint and its Hawaii Related Issues
I created a unique 1964 First Day of Issue (FDOI) pair of Kennedy half dollars, one each from the Philadelphia Mint and Denver Mint.
On this post, I'm continuing to share additional notes on my numismatic research on "Special Medals for United States Government Agencies".

Back story: In 2013, I began researching the President Eisenhower Appreciation Medals . My primary research source were records held by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). My findings included mintage, designers, purpose, destruction inventory, and cataloging the series for the first time. In 2015, I update my numismatic research findings with additional Eisenhower findings and added the Kennedy Appreciation medals to this previously undocumented US Mint medal series.I've been sitting on some of my numismatic research finds relating to the Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy Appreciation Medals. I've attached images of Frank Gasparro's biography that was submitted as a congressional record during his 1965 confirmation as Chief Sculptor and Engraver of the US Mint.
