The obverse of this coin, designed by Brenda Putnam, features a portrait of Moses Cleaveland, the founder of the city of Cleveland, Ohio. The reverse depicts an eagle with outstretched wings, symbolizing strength and freedom, perched above the words "Cleveland Centennial / Great Lakes Exposition." This coin was issued to commemorate the centennial of Cleveland's incorporation as a city and to celebrate the Great Lakes Exposition, an event held to showcase the industrial and cultural achievements of the region. The Great Lakes Exposition was a significant event, drawing millions of visitors to Cleveland in 1936 and 1937. Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, this commemorative half dollar was minted at the Philadelphia Mint, adding to its historical value and collector appeal.
I like the one-off design of the 250th Anniversary, which I think boldly expresses the concept of offering freedom to its citizens. We should, as a country, consider keeping this design. Mount Vernon's example is a nice uncirculated coin.
Beautiful design, reminding me of French coins from the early 20th century, I think this coins design perfectly captures the concept of freedom. Mount Vernon's example is a nice uncirculated coin.
I received these 10 1.00 dollar denomination Silver Certificates to be exactly as stated by the seller and to be in VG - Good condition as also advertised. This is my first time deciding to buy paper money and figured that these would be great to add to my collection of actual silver coins, (mostly silver dollars). I bought these silver certificates more for the historical value, rather than the actual denomination value to be paid to the bearer one dollar in silver. Where else could I find out US paper money that would make such a statement to pay someone in silver of the equal value?
Again, it's the history behind such a demand that intrigued me more than anything.
My next purchase hopefully will be in Gold Certificate's.
I'm very happy with the purchase of the silver certificates I purchased.
Thank you
