Commemorative Silver
1936 50C Delaware MS65 NGC. Swedish colonists arrived at what is now Wilmington, Delaware, in 1638. This issue celebrates the tercentenary of their landing, although it was produced two years before the proper anniversary. In all, 20,000 coins were sold. Survivors are generally available in Gem and Premium Gem condition. Splashes of golden-russet color around minimally toned centers and slightly frosted luster characterize each side.
