Vintage 1964 Lucite Coin Cube Paperweight
This is a vintage cuboid paperweight made of clear, transparent Lucite (acrylic resin) containing a suspended 1964 United States proof set. The primary feature is a 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar prominently displayed on the front face, showing 'In God We Trust' and the date. Below and to the left, a Lincoln Penny is visible. Other coins, including a Washington Quarter, Roosevelt Dime, and Jefferson Nickel, are angled within the cube to be seen from different sides. The coins appear to be in Brilliant Uncirculated or Proof condition, preserved by the airtight resin. The cube measures approximately 2.5 to 3 inches per side and exhibits sharp, bevelled edges. Based on the 1964 date of the coins, this souvenir was likely manufactured in the mid-to-late 1960s. The Lucite appears mostly clear with no significant yellowing, though minor surface scratches and handling marks are visible consistent with age. There are no visible maker's marks, which is common for these mid-century desk accessories. The craftsmanship is high, with no visible air bubbles or inclusions in the resin, providing a perfect 'suspended in air' effect for the numismatic contents.
