<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 818337, member: 39&quot;]Yes, I think it is quite difficult to commemorate a &quot;civil&quot; war on coins from a country that encompasses both sides now. The depictions of heroic winning soldiers that can usually be found on war memorial coins from some countries would not make much sense in such a case. So that Half Dollar design is a pretty good one, I think.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Liberian piece I do not find well balanced. As for the 1995 US commems, the gold piece is OK, the silver dollar is too wordy, and the Half Dollar looks good in my opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, why was the Gettysburg Half Dollar issued in 1936 instead of 1938?</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
