This commemorative half dollar coin features Booker T. Washington and was minted in 1951 in Philadelphia. The coin has a denomination of 50 cents and is made of 90% silver with a fineness of 0.9. It is a business strike type and is ungraded. The design features the bust of Booker T. Washington on the obverse and the Hall of Fame for Great Americans at New York University on the reverse.


I am not a coin grader and will not speculate on the grade of the coin, however it is in very nice condition as can be seen from the pictures. More pictures are available upon request. I am including the round plastic coin holder/protector so the next owner can enjoy this beautiful piece of history as I have!
