The artist whose Independence Hall reverse was selected for the Bicentennial Kennedy half dollar.
生平
Huntington developed a career in art and sculpture before entering the national competition. His architectural reverse was chosen to replace the regular heraldic eagle temporarily for the Bicentennial.
风格与影响
The design uses a direct frontal view of Independence Hall, a compact legend, and a crescent of stars to organize a complex building at coin scale. The half dollar records a rare temporary replacement of a modern circulating reverse through open competition, paired with Gilroy Roberts's existing obverse.
