The 1937 Texas Commemorative Half Dollar belongs to a commemorative coin program released in recognition of the 100th anniversary of Texas’s independence from Mexico. While the main centennial celebration officially took place in 1936, the US Mint continued issuing these commemorative half dollars after the event had ended. The program originally began in 1934, and the 1937 issue is especially popular because it was struck at all three operating US Mint locations: Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. This allowed collectors to pursue a complete three-coin set featuring different mint marks. This 1937-S Texas Commemorative Coin features an MS66 grade from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) and displays a strong, frosted brilliance. Now, the 1937 Texas Commemorative Half Dollar is available online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Certified in Mint State 66 condition, this 1937-S Texas Commemorative Half Dollar offers beautiful visuals. The coin’s obverse is largely untoned and offers a vivid, frosted luster across both the fields and designs. The reverse has a blast-white silver surface with equally brilliant frosted elements.
The obverse of the 1937-S Texas Commemorative Coin features a bold image of an American bald eagle with its wings spread. The eagle is shown holding an olive branch, with the Lone Star positioned behind it to symbolize Texas. The inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “HALF DOLLAR” are arranged around the central imagery.
On the reverse of 1937-S Texas Commemorative Half Dollars, sculptor Pompeo Coppini created a detailed scene showing the goddess of victory kneeling beside The Alamo with her wings extended. In the background is the Altar of the Six Flags, representing the six nations that have ruled Texas. The goddess is framed by portraits of Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin, both of whom played major roles in Texas independence. The reverse also includes the inscriptions “THE TEXAS INDEPENDENCE CENTENNIAL” and “REMEMBER THE ALAMO.”
The 1937-S Texas Commemorative Half Dollar from the San Francisco Mint, identified by its “S” mint mark, also had a limited mintage of 6,637 coins, nearly identical to the Denver issue. Together with the Philadelphia and Denver strikes, the San Francisco coins completed the 1937 trio, and many collectors purchased all three as a matched set, a marketing strategy that maximized sales but also fueled concerns about the commemorative coin program’s increasing focus on profit over historical commemoration.
