1996-S Olympics 1/2 Dollar Clad Commem PR-69 PCGS (Swimming)
Issued to commemorate the XXVI Summer Olympiad in Atlanta, this 1996 half dollar is one of four distinct clad fifty-cent pieces struck for the global athletic event. The coin features a composition of copper and nickel bonded to a core of pure copper, struck at the San Francisco Mint to a pristine proof finish. It has been certified in an elite Proof 69 Deep Cameo state, highlighting the contrast between its frosted details and mirror-like fields. The obverse design captures the intense energy of the games, depicting a competitive swimmer in the middle of a breaststroke. The inscriptions "LIBERTY", "IN GOD WE TRUST", "USA", and the year "1996" accompany the athlete. On the reverse, the design showcases the official Atlanta Olympic logo alongside the Olympic flame. The reverse inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "E PLURIBUS UNUM", and the denomination "HALF DOLLAR", celebrating the spirit of international competition on American soil.
