<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 546382, member: 66"]It was originally proposed for 2010 but the 2010 slots are now full. Now I haven't seen the article but if it is recent you have the fact that the 2011 and 2012 chances don't look to promising so they simply moved it to 2013 and closest possibility. It's kind of how they are still talking about the 50th anniversary commems for the founding of NASA in 1958. And they are talking about 2014.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Actually they did have a very famous Music Festival. Problem was the Festival began in 1873 not 1886, and the festival was a biannual event and only held in odd numbered years so they didn't even have a festival in the 1936 year of the coin. And Stephen Foster DID live there, but only for three years while he was working as a bookkeeper and before he started writing his music. I love the Cincinnati half dollar. There are so many scams and fabrications involved with this coin that about the only thing honest about it is the weight and the 900 fine silver content.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
