  • 老西班牙小径半美元(英語:Old Spanish Trail half dollar)是美国铸币局1935年生产的半美元纪念币,由钱币经销商莱曼·霍夫克设计并负责销售。 1930年,赫伯特·胡佛总统否决国会通过的加兹登购地半美元法案。曾竭力游说法案的霍夫克没有气馁,五年后又一次推动纪念币立法,以西班牙军官阿尔瓦·努涅斯·卡韦萨·德·巴卡16世纪早期的旅途为纪念目标。霍夫克确保国会授权他亲自设计硬币并主控营销,他在设计时自行拍板卡韦萨·德·巴卡旅程的时间和地点,硬币上虽然刻有霍夫克的故乡德克萨斯州艾尔帕索,但卡韦萨·德·巴卡历史上从未接近当地。不过这些问题都不影响国会在无人反对的情况下通过法案,也不影响富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福总统签字颁布法律。 霍夫克从铸币局买下出产的硬币后向收藏爱好者销售,表面上是代表地方博物馆,实际上不过是私人牟利,后来在国会听证时又矢口否认。硬币收藏杂志《》没有记载纪念币发售方式引起的不满,霍夫克后于1939年当上美国钱币协会主席。钱币学界对硬币正面的牛头设计评价不一。老西班牙小径半美元只发行一万枚,许多想要集齐套装的收藏爱好者趋之若鹜,所以这款纪念币颇有价值。 (zh)
