Status: Sold

1952 George Washington Carver and Booker T. Washington Silver Half Dollar- The Washington-Carver Half Dollar depicts conjoined busts of the two men facing right, with Carver in the foreground. Their names are arranged in arcs around their busts, the names divided above by LIBERTY and below by the value HALF DOLLAR. Framing the periphery are the legends UNITED STATES OF AMERICA above and IN GOD WE TRUST and E PLURIBUS UNUM below. If this sounds overly congested, it is, and the pitiful little date of coining is wedged uncomfortably between this lettering to left of Carver’s portrait. On the reverse is a map of the continental United States. For those coin buyers who might not recognize it, the letters U. S. A. are superimposed atop it. Around the periphery are the phrases FREEDOM AND OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL above and AMERICANISM below. All items sold as is. All sales are final. Coins and Currency are shipped via USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate only. Invoices having a total value of $500 more are shipped by Registered Mail. No Exception!
