1935 "Rocking Horse" Crown. Struck to commemorate George's Silver Jubilee, and by far the most readily available George V crown.

Nice coins muddler and oih82w8

I wondered when some nice commemorative half dollars would come out.

I really like that Rocking horse Crown. Another coin I need to watch out for.

This coin has PMD but is the oldest coin I found in change in Costa Rica in 1985. At the time it was issued, it was the largest denomination in circulation.

Bacchus got in first with a 1935 Belgian silver 20 Fr, so I need to show a different one for that year. In 1935 a world exhibition was organized in Brussels, at which occasion a commemorative silver 50 Francs coin was issued.
Low mintage and many coins returned to the National Bank (the 1939 silver 50 Fr had a better fineness), cause this coin to be less common.

The obverse shows the centennial exposition hall (still in use) at the Heyzel just outside Brussels. The legend translates as: 'Centennial of Belgian Railways'

The reverse shows the Archangel Michael's victory over the devil. The Archangel is wearing a helmet with cross.
The legend translates as: Kingdom Belgium, Brussels exhibition.

To go with that rocking horse crown, I have a George V 25 year jubilee medal.

oih82w8, I have got to add one of those 1935 Texas Centennial Commemorative halves to my collection. Definitely my favorite commemorative design.

Yes, that is a staple scratch across Miss Liberty's cheek.
