Thanks Alpha, He is Well Deserving of Honors, IMO....

The Original poster Here on 9-22-2023 BadDog Stated, About the 2025 Marines Anniversary in 2025 Quote : " I'm hoping it will nicely compliment the 2005 230th Anniversary coin. "

So much for the Silver dollars Design, I feel it let Some down as Well as Myself, the opportunity to make a difference on their 250th Anniversary. It is a nice designed Reverse, That We've " basically seen " Before.

Now the Design on the Half is Outstanding, To me, in that it shows Originality, Along with a Fresh Vision as to the Design, I am Impressed, Thank You Craig A. Campbell,

Is it me or does the design basically look like a copy paste of the 2005 Marine Corps Commemorative Coin? Not sure if anyone has mentioned this.
