Columbian Half

coin collectors!?
hello all coin collectors! I am new in the coin collecting world but i believe i have a rare coin already. it is an 1892 orlds fair columbian half dollar. it is a U.S. coin and ive heard this was the first series of comemorative coins the U.S. mint made. anyone know the history or value? thanks!
Hello, yes this was the very first US Commemorative silve half-dollar, and was made in 92 & 93. Depending, of course, on the condition the coin in worth in the range of $8.00 to $20.00. I do have one of each and they are very historic coins. I am a small collector and have approximately 150 coins from 1/2 cent to large dollar bill. I am 70 years old and mostly give to grandchildren, great grands, nephews, etc. Hope that you continue to collect for historical interest and value . Best Regards
Bill Michau

The Columbian Orator $75 First published in 1797, The Columbian Orator helped shape the American mind for the next half century, going through some 23 editions and totaling 200,000 copies in sales. The book was read by virtually every American schoolboy in the first half of the 19th century. As a slave youth, Frederick Douglass owned just one book, and read it frequently, referring to it as a "gem" and his "rich treasure.". The Columbian Orator presents 84 selections, most of which are notable examples of oratory on such subjects as nationalism, religious faith, individual liberty, freedom, and slavery, including pieces by Washington, Franklin, Milton, Socrates, and Cicero, as well as heroic poetry and dramatic dialogues. Augmenting these is an essay on effective public speaking which influenced Abraham Lincoln as a young politician. As America experiences a resurgence of interest in the art of debating and oratory, The Columbian Orator –whether as historical artifact or contemporary guidebook–is one of those rare books to be valued for what it meant in its own time, and for how its ideas have endured. Above all, this book is a remarkable compilation of Enlightenment era thought and language that has stood the test of time. |
