1925 S California Silver Half Dollar and I found it in Hawaii!

[silversaver888]

I could never find it. I gave up. It has been in my Christmas list for many years now and even wrote about it some three years ago HERE.

I certainly did not expect to find anything worthwhile in that store. Not after the disappointment from the first one I visited.

But I am very happy that I did. I found it in Hawaii!

1925-S California Silver Half Dollar Diamond Jubilee Commemorative

The 1925 S California Diamond Jubilee Half Dollar is one of the collector favorites among the early commemorative coins. The issue was authorized to mark the 75th anniversary of California’s statehood. This was minted in San Francisco in 1925.

The obverse of the coin features a kneeling figure of a “forty-niner” as he pans for gold. Inscriptions include “Liberty”, “In God We Trust”, “California Diamond Jubilee” and “1925”. The reverse features an image of a grizzly bear, which comes from the state emblem of California. Inscriptions read “E Pluribus Unum”, “United States of America”, and “Half Dollar”. Both the obverse and reverse of the California Half Dollar were designed by sculptor Joseph Mora.

Source: Coin Guide

Isn't this design so iconic? Iconic of California... Northern California that is... the regions San Francisco and the Sacramento to be specific.

It is the American Prospector panning for gold.

The grizzly bear had California to itself for hundreds of thousands of years as the state’s largest and fiercest predator.

The California grizzly bear is the State Animal.

It is so appropriate that I found and bought this 1925 California Diamond Jubilee Commemorative Half Dollar in my Hawaii!

I like it so much that I am on a tubular journey to collect silver rounds with this design. I have it in Gold American Prospector too!

Wow! Come to think of it, the equivalent of this slabbed coin approximates that of the silver rounds together!

I now own a 1925 S California Diamond Jubilee Commemorative Half Dollar.

I can cross it off the list! Yay!

😍#ilikeitalot!😍

From 1892 through 1954, legislation authorized the U.S. Mint to produce commemorative coins for 53 different events, occasions, or individuals. This resulted in the Mint producing over 180 silver and gold commemorative coins.

Many times, I've wondered what I would do with my stack. At the same time, I've wondered if I'll go back to my roots. I was stuck with the mindset that you stack in case of an emergency... well I have my emergency fund for that. Now, I stack with the purpose of buying back a piece of my past.

The Half dollar is nice. And you also have it in gold. Looks like the tenth ounce !

[silversaver888]

Yes, it is in tenth ounce. PG&G is the only ones that carry it.
Anyways, I am happy!!!

So very nice that you found this coin in Hawaii @silversaver888 !🤗
I remember that you are a big fan of the 49er panning for gold, such a classic to add to your stack my friend!😊

[silversaver888]

Yes, ever since forever, way before I learned to stack!
Did you notice how deliberate I was in stacking these @silvertop 😊?
!PIMP

[thepimpdistrict]

^{You must be killin' it out here!
@silversaver888 just slapped you with 1.000 PIMP, @silvertop.
You earned 1.000 PIMP for the strong hand.
They're getting a workout and slapped 1/1 possible people today.}

[silvertop]

Yes I did @silversaver888 !!!
I only wish I could convince my grown sons to do the same, they still give me that sideways look when I talk about stacking lol! I guess they'll get it eventually take care my friend!😀

[littlebee4]

WOW what a great find @silversaver in that shop in Hawaii 😊 I’m soooo happy for you especially after reading you have been searching for it a while now.
Yeah! You found it.
And what a beautiful coin it is, it is truly special. Great design on both sides.

Have a wonderful day further 😘🤗 biggg huggg

I am always looking at it, and it's going to be for a while before I put it away @littlebee4 .
Only to look... not to be playing with it. It's older than my parents by 27 years, hehehe,
Have a pleasant evening, and hugs and kisses 😘🤗

[littlebee4]

I can imagine that… like a new toy when you were a kid.
Treasure it… enjoy it but not play with it.
Only 9 years older than my mom. (She got me late in her second marriage) 18 years than my dad.

Thank you so much @silversaver888
Time to go to bed here… almost… 00:49am now.

Wow, it is interesting to know that the bear on this coin taken from the Bear Flag of California when there was revolt against Mexican government.

It is indeed great to have both versions silver and gold. What a commemorative combo. Once the best collections ever.
