Product Details: This historic 1939-S Arkansas Centennial Half Dollar, preserved in a highly sought-after vintage PCGS 'Old Green Holder' (OGH) and graded a beautiful MS64, is a scarce and wonderfully struck example from the final year of this classic commemorative series. The obverse features the finely detailed, overlapping profiles of a Quapaw Native American chief and Lady Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap—symbolizing both the region's indigenous heritage and its freedom—set against brilliant, frosty silver fields alongside the centennial dates of 1836 and 1936. On the reverse, the striking design portrays a majestic eagle with outstretched wings fiercely guarding a radiant rising sun, set over a geometric diamond shape that pays tribute to the Arkansas state flag and its unique diamond fields, while bearing the final 1939 mintage year and the crucial San Francisco 'S' mint mark. With an extremely low original mintage for the 1939 issues and beautifully retained mint luster, this 90% silver half dollar offers collectors an exceptional blend of Southern history, unique commemorative artistry, and premium vintage slab prestige.
