1920 Maine Centennial half dollar just $15.00. The Maine Centennial half dollar is a commemorative coin originally struck in 1920 by the United States Bureau of the Mint. It was sculpted by Anthony de Francisci, following sketches by artist, Harry Cochrane, from Monmouth, Maine. The obverse of the Maine Centennial half dollar depicts the arms of Maine, based on the state's seal. At its center is a shield with a pine tree, sunken incuse into the coin, and below the tree a moose, lying down. The shield is flanked by two male figures, one bearing a scythe and representing Agriculture; the other, supporting an anchor, represents Commerce. Above the shield is the legend Dirigo, Latin for "I direct", and above that a five-pointed star. Below the shield is a scroll with the state's name. Near the rim are UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and HALF DOLLAR. The reverse contains a wreath of pine needles and cones (Maine is known as the Pine Tree State) around MAINE CENTENNIAL 1820–1920 as well as the various mottoes required by law to be present on the coinage. These coins are a great symbol of American history!
