I am past the half-way mark!
Here my Christmas Wish Day 7!
1935 Connecticut Tercentenary Half Dollar
What is commonly referred to as the coin's obverse features the well-known Charter Oak. When King James II tried to seize the colonists' royal charter, this is where they concealed it. The tree's depiction is based on a Charles DeWolf painting that the Connecticut Historical Society owns. To create a striking impression, the leaf proportions are enlarged.
The coin's reverse, or what Mint records refer to as the obverse, has a bald eagle with remarkably simple and austere features.
The maximum allowed mintage for the 1935 Connecticut Half Dollar was 25,000 coins, which was a relatively minor amount. After the entire series sold out, the net distribution, which included coins struck for assay, was $25,018.
The current price for a 1935 Connecticut Half Dollar BU:
The 1935 Connecticut Half Dollar was a commemorative coin issue was approved to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the founding of the colony of Connecticut. The 1935 Connecticut Tercentenary Half Dollar's design features powerful art Deco depictions of a bald eagle and oak tree.
Do you know that Connecticut residents have a name?
They are called ‘Connecticuters’.
While there are tons of other terms, they are not all the prettiest or easiest to say, but Connecticut is unique and so are its residents.
Since the state is so innovative, you know the natives of the area are, too. In 1702, way back in the day, Cotton Mather actually called Connecticut residents ‘Connecticotians,’1 which sounds a bit cooler than Webster’s term.
The 1700s were the state’s early days, so it’s no surprise that people kept coming up with their own names and ideas.
Samuel Peters, in 1781, decided Connecticut natives should be called ‘Connecticutensians,’1 which just seems like a fancier version of Mather’s 1702 word.

'Nutmeggers' is another term that is sometimes used, since they are the great Nutmeg State2. During the early days, the Connecticut Peddlers traveled through the state selling nutmegs.
"Nutmegger" is the most likely term that anyone from anyplace in New England will use to describe people from Connecticut.
"I'm from Connecticut," is how those who are genuinely from the state identify themselves.

Don't fall by the wayside. Join us and @silverd510. Don't you have Santa’s wish list? My seventh coin in my Christmas Wish List is the 1935 Connecticut Tercentenary Half Dollar!
BTW, Christmas begins the eve of the 24th of December, and ends during the celebration of Jesus' baptism. That is the twelve days of Christmas!

I was completely unaware of the history behind the charter Oak tree @silversaver888!😮
Amazing piece of US history !🤗
Just for the history alone , this is an amazing silver commemorative to add to the Christmas wish list!🤗
Can you imagine! They hid the Charter inside the oak tree! What a story, @silvertop !!

The celebration of Jesus' baptism on January 6th shares the day as the celebration of the Magi, guided by a star, coming from the East to adore the infant Jesus, and Jesus changing water into wine at the wedding feast in Cana. Thus, Epiphany, meaning "manifestation" celebrates the Magi recognizing Jesus as the Divine King, the Father's proclamation that Jesus is the Son of God as He stood in the Jordan, and the mystery of His divine nature made manifest by his miracle in Cana. Merry Christmas @silversaver888 !
!BBH
Yes! The scope to Epiphany expanded to include all!
How nice it is to know someone who is very familiar with the Roman Catholic faith, @kunschj !
