1936 York Old Commem Half Dollar 50c Grades GEM++ Unc. The founding of the first county of Maine was commemorated by the 1936 York County Tercentenary Half Dollar. This issue was released amidst the outpouring of other commemoratives issued during the year, for occasions both significant and relatively obscure.Designs for the coin were created by Walter H. Rich, a wildlife painter from Portland. The obverse features an image of Brown’s Garrison, the original settlement of York County. The image is based on a woodcut printed in The Proprietors of Saco. The reverse of the coin features the York County Seal, which consists of a shield containing a cross and pine tree. IThe maximum authorized mintage for the York Half Dollars was 30,000 pieces. An initial quantity of 25,015 was struck at the Philadelphia Mint and offered for sale by the York County Tercentenary Coin Commission for $1.50 to state residents and $1.65 to those out of state.
