  • 列克星敦-康科德150周年纪念半美元(英語:Lexington-Concord Sesquicentennial half dollar),又称列克星敦-康科德半美元(Lexington-Concord half dollar)或爱国者半美元(Patriot half dollar),是美国铸币局1925年生产的一种银质纪念币,由雕塑家切斯特·比奇设计,旨在纪念列克星敦和康科德战役150周年。 1924年,麻薩諸塞州多位国会议员提出法案,建议为列克星敦和康科德战役150周年发行纪念币。法案在参众两院通过,再由总统卡尔文·柯立芝签署生效。比奇的设计方案得到列克星敦和康科德两地的委员会首肯,美术委员会觉得比奇的设计素材不佳,但还是勉强通过方案。 纪念币定价一美元,不但在列克星敦和康科德举办的周年庆典活动上售卖,还在新英格兰各地银行出售。国会授权制作30万枚纪念币,但实际产量只略超过半数。硬币销售情况良好,全部16万枚绝大部分顺利卖出。如今,这些银币视成色而定,价值在100至近千美元不等。 (zh)
