1936 Rhode Island Tercentenary Half Dollar Attractive
The 1936 Rhode Island Tercentenary Half Dollar, struck to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the founding of Rhode Island, boasts a mintage of just 70,000 pieces, making it a semi-key date within the series. Designed by the renowned sculptor and engraver, John R. Sinnock, this coin features a beautifully detailed depiction of the state’s iconic symbol, the Hope statue, on the obverse, while the reverse showcases a depiction of the state seal. This particular example is noted for its exceptional luster and eye appeal, with surfaces that exhibit minimal contact marks, enhancing its desirability among collectors. As a commemorative issue, it holds significant value for those assembling a complete set of U.S. commemorative half dollars, and its limited mintage ensures it remains a sought-after piece in the numismatic market. With its historical significance and relative rarity, this coin is an excellent addition for both advanced collectors and those looking to enhance their commemorative series.
