Quote: 1966 Australia 50 cents: I've liked the coat-of-arms design of the Australia 50-cent coin from the first time I saw it! I think Stuart Devlin did a great job with the design. Thanks for posting!

The 1936 Rhode Island Tercentenary half dollar is another member of the classic US commemorative coin series that features an official Seal. The reverse of the coin depicts an adaptation of a shield with the anchor of Hope as seen on the Rhode Island Seal.  I've posted multiple times about the Rhode Island half dollar and its history, you can find the posts here: Read More: Commems Collection
