½ Dollar (United States Army)

The 2011 United States Army Half Dollar

In 2011 the U.S. Mint struck a half dollar for the oldest branch of the American military, and chose to show it not in battle but at work: a soldier surveying land, two men building a flood wall, a rocket on the launch pad. The Mint was allowed to make up to 750,000. It made fewer than 110,000 — and that low number is exactly why collectors notice it today.
