1936 50¢ Gettysburg Commemorative Silver Half Dollar – NGC MS66
This stunning 1936 Gettysburg Commemorative Half Dollar has been graded MS66 by NGC, placing it among the upper echelon of survivors from this historic issue. Issued to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, this silver half dollar is a powerful tribute to one of the most pivotal and solemn events in American history.
Designed by Frank Vittor, the obverse features conjoined busts of a Union and Confederate soldier, symbolizing unity and reconciliation. The reverse proudly displays the Pennsylvania State Coat of Arms, surrounded by 13 stars, echoing the original colonies.
Struck in limited numbers—just 26,928 distributed to the public—this commemorative is prized by collectors for both its low mintage and historical significance. The surfaces of this example are sharply struck with satiny luster and minimal marks, fully deserving of its lofty MS66 grade.
Whether you're a seasoned collector of classic commemoratives or a Civil War history enthusiast, this high-grade Gettysburg half dollar is a remarkable piece that honors the past with timeless artistry and exceptional preservation.

‘’I had gone to a couple of other places and they weren’t the nicest people and were trying to rip me off. The people at copper state were very knowledgeable and kind. They taught me a lot along the way too. Mike and Ivy were big helps in my situation. The place is also very organized, clean and they were professional!! I recommend you go here! I will be back!’’

‘’First time visit to the shop was great! All were fun to talk with friendly to work with and outstanding to do business with. I was looking for some specific items. They went above and beyond to double check inventory not under glass. Boy, did they make my day. Not only did they find, it but they gave me the best deal in town. I will be back again! Thank you Mike! Copper State is a new spot for me now.’’

‘’Found a couple of the 2009 Formative Years” I have been looking for. Came to Copperstate Coins responding to an ad not knowing they were a coin dealer. Met with Ivy to pick up my rolls. All in the store were extremely polite not pushy helpful and I left with more than I came in for. Without a doubt greatest place to go if you’re just getting into the hobby, which I am, I will be a frequent customer. Thank you!!’’
