1935-S San Diego Half Dollar MS-65 PCGS
Struck in 1935, this silver commemorative half dollar celebrates California's rich heritage with a remarkably detailed design. The obverse features a seated female figure holding a spear, accompanied by a bear in the background. This striking composition is complemented by the traditional motto "IN GOD WE TRUST," which is partially visible on the coin's face. The reverse of the coin showcases the architectural beauty of the State of California building alongside its prominent observation tower. This design element captures a specific moment in the state's history, rendered in 0.3617 troy ounces of 90 percent pure silver. This particular specimen is certified in Mint State 65 (MS-65) condition, preserving the crisp lines of both the architectural reverse and the symbolic obverse. Minted at the San Francisco facility, as indicated by the "S" mint mark, this half dollar remains a fascinating study in early twentieth-century American commemorative coinage.
