1937 Antietam Commemorative Half Dollar (50c)

The 1937 Antietam Commemorative Half Dollar marks the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Antietam, one of the bloodiest single-day battles in American Civil War history. With a modest mintage of just 18,028 pieces, this historic commemorative has become increasingly sought-after over the decades.

This superb MS66+ displays exceptional luster with smooth, nearly mark-free surfaces that easily justify the lofty grade. Light natural toning is beginning to develop around the peripheries, enhancing the eye appeal while maintaining the brilliant silver surfaces. The strike is remarkably sharp, with full detail visible on both the portraits on the obverse and the intricate Burnside Bridge scene on the reverse.
