Coin Highlights:
This 1936 Oregon Trail Commemorative Half Dollar has a Mint State 66 certification. The coin’s obverse is largely untoned with frosted visuals and a vibrant luster. The reverse field is blast white with a strong, satin sheen.
The obverse of the 1936 Oregon Trail Commemorative Coin shows a Native American standing in full headdress before a map of the United States, gesturing westward toward the setting sun. Designed by James Earle Fraser and Laura Gardin Fraser, this powerful image symbolizes both the indigenous presence and the westward migration that transformed the continent.
The reverse of the 1936 Oregon Trail Commemorative Half Dollar features a covered Conestoga wagon pulled by oxen, the iconic image of pioneer travel along the Oregon Trail. The design captures the determination and hardship of the journey, with simple but evocative details that have made this one of the most recognizable of all commemorative coin designs.
The Oregon Trail Memorial Association commissioned these coins to raise funds for monuments and markers along the historic trail route, helping preserve the memory of the thousands who made the arduous journey west. The coins were sold to collectors at a premium, with proceeds supporting educational and commemorative projects.
