PCGS - Despite its controversial reverse design, the Texas Centennial Half Dollar remains one of the most sought-after classic commemoratives in U.S. numismatics. Even the common-date 1934 issue is tough in superb gem condition, and in PCGS MS68, this example shines at the top.

Yeah, I could see that. It definitely is kind of "busy"

To describe the coin's reverse as "busy" or "crowded" would be an understatement. Kneeling at its center is the allegorical female figure of Winged Liberty. Her left arm rests on the Alamo, the battle site that, even in defeat, helped inspire the Texans/Texians as they fought for their independence ("Remember the Alamo!"); further to her left (viewer's right) is a cameo portrait of Stephen F. Austin who is generally referred to as the "Father of Texas" for his efforts to colonize Texas beginning in 1825. To Victory's right is a cameo portrait of Sam Houston, the first Commander-in-Chief of the Texas Army, the first President of the Texas Republic after it declared independence and a US Senator from Texas after it became a State in 1845.

Above Victory is seen "LIBERTY" on a banner/scroll along with the six different national flags that have flown over Texas: 1. Spain (1519-1685; 1690-1821), 2. France (1685-1690), 3. Mexico (1821-36), 4. Republic of Texas (1836-45), 5. United States (1845-1861; 1865-present) and 6. Confederate States (1861-65).
