-X7gKbzbib6kAAAFL1XgjltQB.jpg "1/2 Доллар США (1776 - ) Серебро Джеймс Кук")
1928 Hawaiian Half Dollar. PCGS graded MS-66. Soft natural pastel toning on both sides adds to its appeal. Only 9,958 struck. The opportunity to strike this issue came in conjunction with sesquicentennial celebrations then being planned throughout the Hawaiian Islands; local groups came up with the idea of establishing a Captain Cook Memorial Collection, to be housed in the Archives of Hawaii. This collection was to be financed in part by proceeds from the sale of the half dollars. Accordingly, Commander Victor Stewart Kaleoaloha Houston, the Delegate to Congress from the then Territory of Hawaii, sponsored a bill which would authorize coinage of 10,000 souvenir half dollars for these purposes; this became the Act of March 7, 1928. Participants in the design process include: Chester Beach, sculptor; Miss Juliette Mae Frazer of Honolulu, designer; Bruce Cartwright, Jr., who contributed preliminary sketches of the reverse; V.S.K. Houston, who demanded dozens of minute changes, the major one being removal of the chief's anklet of shark teeth, as "pertaining to a dancer instead of a warrior." Pop 83; 8 finer, 6 in 66+, 2 in 67+. (PCGS # 9309) Estimated Value $7,000 - 8,000 Categories: Commemorative Silver Coins
