Washington/Carver Commem 1952

Just picked this up today for $10 and change.There were apparently 4 years of this design with all three mints making them.1952P is (of course) by far the most common date. This increases my vast U.S. commemorative half dollar collection to 7..LOL

you can tell it was a commemorative of it's time..

from the Red Book

yes.. definately a coin of it's time.

 

10 dollars is a good price for that coin. I have a number of them at home along with the Booker T. Washington coin. I like the coins but I haven't seen them for awhile.

 

I picked up a neat one of those that had toned on the back....

Speedy,
I wonder what made the square "tan lines" on yours.looks like something was lying on top of it for a long time.Maybe something to do with the original holder?

 

I think you are right...the holder that it was in when I got it was a flip so it must have been the holder before that.
The other side is white!
