COMMENTS
This coin is an excellent way for the more discriminating collector to acquire an attractive Superb Gem Oregon Trail with fabulous eye pleasing tones.  This specimen has an overall lovely base of honey-gold-champagne hues on both sides with splendidly blended pockets of various rainbow spectrum tone as your eyes drift towards the edges.  The coin is free of displeasing distractions such as scratches, scuffs, spots, and luster breaks.  The surface has consistent strong lustrous sheen to highlight the smooth surfaces framed in devices that are very strongly struck.  For the more discriminating collector looking to add an original superb gem Oregon Trail to his/her portfolio or Registry Set, this item is an excellent option and something to boast about to your fellow collectors!  At close look, it's even possible this one is under graded and presents and opportunity to the right buyer. This is the type of coin the graders will use as an example in their Price Guides!

Of all the 1892 to 1954 Classic Commemoratives, the Oregon Trail is one of the most popular and generally commands a premium with all else equal.  If you desire a uniquely toned Oregon Trail in your collection, you absolutely cannot go wrong with this item!

Feel free to request other photos and we'd be happy to provide.  We shot a couple sets with different lighting characteristics but no filtering or doctoring - all natural photos!  We did our best to carefully provide the most accurate photos as possible - however, this beauty will still look better in your hand! As eBay sellers, we want to be sure there is no mystery with coin you are buying!!!

Note: We did include photos from NGC's Cert Page for this specific item.

Note: 2024-04-18 - Please note that we dropped the price by slightly over $200 on this one.  We want to be fair to all our customers and advise them of this.  We feel that this is a very attractive price considering the rich toned vintage look for this item!

    About the Oregon Commemorative Coin
    The Oregon Trail Memorial Half Dollar was a fifty-cent piece struck intermittently by the United States Bureau of the Mint between 1926 and 1939. The coin was designed by Laura Gardin Fraser and James Earle Fraser, and commemorates those who traveled the Oregon Trail and settled the Pacific Coast of the United States in the mid-19th century.
