2024-S Harriet Tubman Clad Half Dollar PCGS MS70 First Strikes w/Flag Label

U.S. Mint Commemorative Program Honors Legacy Of Harriet Tubman

Born a slave in 1822, Harriet Tubman escaped from her owners and was responsible for helping hundreds of slaves escape to freedom as a “conductor” along the Undergrounds Railroad. To pay tribute to Tubman’s life and legacy, The United States Mint announced in 2022 on the 200th anniversary of her birth that it would be striking a series of commemorative coins—and now those coins have finally been struck and they are fantastic!

Half Dollar Designs Represent Tubman’s Work During The Civil War

Here you can secure the Harriet Tubman Clad Half Dollar struck by the San Francisco Mint. The design on this coin features Harriet Tubman’s role as a nurse, scout, and spy during the Civil War. The obverse depicts a portrait of Tubman, who not only led hundreds of former slaves to freedom but was also the first woman to lead an armed expedition in the Civil War. The Combahee River Raid resulted in more than 700 enslaved persons in South Carolina being freed. Two Civil War-era boats can be seen in the design’s background to represent the raid. It also features inscriptions “HARRIET TUBMAN,” “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and the 2024 year date. The coin’s reverse shows Tubman holding a spyglass in front of a row of Civil War-era tents, symbolizing her as a scout and spy for the Union Army during the Civil War. The reverse features the inscriptions “CIVIL WAR NURSE SCOUT SPY,” “COMBAHEE RIVER RAID LEADER,” “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “HALF DOLLAR.”

The “Moses Of Her People”

Known as the “Moses of her people,” Harriet Tubman was arguably the most successful individual who personally led enslaved people to freedom through her service on the Underground Railroad. The coins of the U.S. Mint’s 2024 Harriet Tubman Commemorative Coin Program follow three periods of Harriet Tubman’s life and work: The silver dollar designs reflect her work as a conductor on the Underground Railroad, the half dollar clad designs represent her work during the Civil War, and the $5 gold coin represents her life after the Civil War and her later years. Surcharges from The Mint have been earmarked for the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, and the Harriet Tubman Home, Inc., in Auburn, New York to advance their missions.
