THE DON EVERHART STORY

Don Everhart ll was born in York, Pennsylvania. He earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting from Kutztown State University in 1972. The following year, Everhart joined the Franklin Mint as a designer where he held the staff sculptor position for five years. In March 1980, Everhart left the Franklin Mint to pursue a freelance career. During this period, his work included figurines, plates, coins, and medals for Walt Disney, Tiffany, the Royal Norwegian Mint, and the British Royal Mint. Everhart has received numerous commissions. Most notable of these is Georgetown University’s Sports Hall of Fame, a 24-piece bronze installation.

In addition to international exhibitions, Everhart’s work is included in several permanent collections, including:

• The Smithsonian Institution
• The British Museum
• The American Numismatic Society
• The National Sculpture Society

He also received the prestigious American Numismatic Association’s Sculptor of the Year Award in 1994. In 1997, his submission was chosen as the official inaugural medal for President Clinton’s second term

“I’VE COME TO TRUST NATIONWIDE COINS AND SO SHOULD YOU.”

Don retired from The United States Mint in July of 2017, after over 13 years of service. In February of 2018, Don was awarded the prestigious “Lifetime Achievement Award” from World Coin News in Berlin, Germany. Although retired from The United States Mint, Don still works on commissions from his home studio in West Chester, Pennsylvania.
