    Some people are being led to believe that this Pattern Design is under consideration by the United States Mint as a much needed update to the Half Dollar, or perhaps four use in a different denomination as you will note that the size is just a bit larger than the Kennedy Half currently being struck, and slightly smaller than the size of the Commemorative Dollars also currently being struck; although larger than the Sacajewa Dollar coin.
    There is a growing debate within and without the mint whether it is time appropriate to update the Half Dollar, and due to the resurrection of other popular designs in the form of the Golden Mercury and Buffalo, and now the Morgan Dollar, the next logical choice is to use the Walking or Standing Liberty designs.  While she is presently being struck on the Silver Ounce coins issued by the mint, it seems apposite to use this Sasquatch Design to replace Kennedy's effigy is because the odds of confirming the existence of this great American hero are about even or perhaps better than those of ever solving the mystery around to death of the great American hero John F. Kennedy.
    Mindful of the potential uproar such a suggestion would make amongst Kennedy worshippers, the proposed coin is not the exact same diameter as the Half Dollar, leaving the door open for a different denomination, hence the odd denomination placed within the rising sun's orb.
    Anyway, food for thought.  It's entirely possible that this narrative is made from whole cloth in which case this is still quite an innovative design and highly collectible.
    This Trial piece is Unique in Brass, which this is.  There is one, possibly two, in Aluminum.
