| Obverse description | Crowned and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered in the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait style with fine detail in the hair and crown. The peripheral legend reads 'BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS' to the upper left and 'QUEEN ELIZABETH II' to the upper right, with the date '2013' at lower right. The initials 'IRB' appear below the truncation of the bust, attributing the portrait to its engraver. The field is deeply mirrored, consistent with proof-quality striking. |

| Additional information |
Pobjoy Mint, operating as a private strike facility in Surrey, produced commemorative coinage for numerous smaller territories — many of them British Overseas Territories or island dependencies with no domestic mint capability. Kennedy commemoratives have been a recurring subject for such issues since the 1960s, when his assassination generated immediate global demand for memorial coinage that official U.S. law at the time made difficult to satisfy domestically. The half dollar bearing his portrait wasn't released until 1964, and federal restrictions long complicated private American commemorative production.
The 2013 date places this fifty years after Dallas.
