Collectible coins, particularly in the United States, encompass a variety of types including commemorative coins, which are issued to honor specific events, individuals, or anniversaries. The 50-cent Silver Commemoratives, first introduced in 1892, gained popularity in the 20th century, including notable issues from 1938. Coins minted in Philadelphia during this period are often sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and limited mintage. These collectible coins are typically composed of 90% silver and exhibit unique designs that reflect the themes they commemorate.
