<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 26105916, member: 76194&quot;]When one talks about classic commemoratives, Delaware is not one that often gets mentioned. The ship on the reverse, although nicely done, cannot compare to the beautifully executed ship on the reverse of the Pilgrim half, and the obverse featuring a 17th century church, doesn&#039;t quite stand out as much as other iconic classic commemorative halves like San Diego, Oregon Trail, or Texas.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1664591[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Nevertheless, it is still a beautiful design. The sun rays barely peeking through the cloud and shining down on the church can be said to have quite powerful religious connotations, almost like heaven shining down upon a place of worship. And if one looks closely at the church itself, you can see that the walls and other features have a lot of tiny little intricate detail. The Swedish ship on the reverse is a beautiful commemoration of the Swedish connection to the state of Delaware.&nbsp; There were 25,000 of these struck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
