One of the most popular classic-era US commemorative coins is the Oregon Trail Memorial Half Dollar; it was struck intermittently between 1926 and 1939.

The obverse (officially, per the US Mint) depicts an ox-drawn wagon being guided by a male figure (father?) leading his family to a new life in the American West.

The 1938 New Rochelle, NY Half Dollar marks the 300th Anniversary of the settlement of the present-day city.

It's obverse features a "fatted calfe" which - regardless of its old-time spelling - is squarely in the bovine category!
