Massive 14-karat Gold Medal from the Dedication of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

The obverse features a profile of Kennedy, while the reverse shows the Center along with details of the dedication. Designed and signed by Paul Jennewein and produced by the Medallic Arts Company, marked 14K, and reputedly one of only ten struck.
