Battle of Gettysburg half dollar

The Battle of Gettysburg half dollar was designed by Frank Vittor and minted in 1937, although it was dated 1936.

E pluribus unum ("Out of Many, One"), the de facto United States national motto until 1956, is displayed prominently above the two war veterans, with the "E" serving as both the first letter of the motto and the middle letter of Liberty.

[3][4] Union Maj. Gen. George Meade's Army of the Potomac defeated attacks by Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, halting Lee's invasion of the North.

The battle took place over three days and took the lives of 23,000–28,000 (estimated)[5][6] Confederates and 23,049 Union soldiers[7][8]
