Rare 1935-S San Diego California-Pacific Exposition Half Dollar (XF/AU) This is a beautiful example of the 1935-S California-Pacific International Exposition Half Dollar, struck at the San Francisco Mint. Designed by Robert Aitken, this commemorative coin celebrates the San Diego fair and features some of the most intricate artistry found on U. Condition: XF/AU (Extremely Fine / About Uncirculated) Detailed Description Obverse: Features a seated figure of Minerva (the Roman goddess of wisdom) with a shield and a grizzly bear by her side-a nod to the California state seal. The luster is still present, with sharp details on the spear and shield. Reverse: Depicts the iconic Chapel of St. Francis and the California Tower from the exposition grounds (Balboa Park). The architecture remains crisp with minimal wear on the high points of the buildings. Overall Eye Appeal: This coin has a wonderful original patina. It bridges the gap between a high-grade circulated coin and a low-end uncirculated piece, making it a perfect addition for a commemorative type set collector who wants beauty.
