<p>[QUOTE="mralexanderb, post: 349921, member: 7851"]I'm going to have to go with the 1936 Columbia, South Carolina Sesquicentennial half dollar as the most boring, ugly & useless Comm coin made to date. How many of you know what Columbia's sesquicentennial is or even care? The death-like figure of "Justice" on the obverse looks like she stepped out of the film, "The night of the living dead," On the reverse is the totally boring Palmetto tree. The only thing that tree is supposedly good for is the leaves are purported to help with enlarged prostate problems. And they don't work, it;s a fraud. Is that important to you? The real problem is that this states' tree doesn't do diddley. It stands there all droopy and represents the ennui of Columbia, SC.</p><p>This coin should win this WORST commem coin ever made contest because it is the worst, and it's an ugly coin to boot.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>PS: I was trying to be nice here!</p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
