Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, on the obverse (front side), while the reverse (back side) depicts an image of a sailor looking through a periscope, with the inscription "Oppose any Foe" below. This design was meant to commemorate Kennedy's leadership during the Cuban Missile Crisis and his commitment to defending the United States against any threats.
