Product Details This magnificent 1938 Texas Centennial Half Dollar, housed in a classic vintage NGC holder and certified a premium Gem MS 66 with a highly coveted green CAC sticker, is a breathtaking example of one of the most intricately designed issues in the classic U.S. commemorative series. The obverse features Pompeo Coppini’s bold design of a majestic eagle perched upon an oak branch, superimposed against a large, striking five-pointed 'Lone Star,' all set against radiant, frosty silver fields that showcase outstanding original mint luster. Transitioning to the remarkably complex reverse, the design presents a winged, kneeling figure of Victory resting her hand upon the Alamo, flanked by miniature medallion portraits of Texas founding fathers Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin, beautifully framed by the legendary 'REMEMBER THE ALAMO' motto and highlighted by gorgeous, warm golden-brown peripheral toning along the right rim. Boasting exceptional strike sharpness, virtually flawless surfaces, and the ultimate dual-prestige of an early generation slab and CAC validation for solid-for-the-grade quality, this 90% silver half dollar is a spectacular prize for any dedicated collector of classic U.S. commemoratives or Texas history.
