The San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge half dollar or Bay Bridge half dollar is a commemorative fifty-cent piece struck by the United States Bureau of the Mint in 1936. One of many commemoratives issued that year, it was designed by Jacques Schnier and honors the opening of the Bay Bridge that November. One side of the coin depicts a grizzly bear, a symbol of California, and the other shows the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge, with the Ferry Building in the foreground.

  • 旧金山-奥克兰海湾大桥半美元(英語:San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge half dollar)又称海湾大桥半美元(Bay Bridge half dollar),是美国铸币局1936年铸造的50美分,旨在庆祝旧金山-奥克兰海湾大桥这年十一月建成通车。硬币由设计,正面刻有象征加利福尼亚州的灰熊,背面是旧金山-奥克兰海湾大桥,并有旧金山渡轮大厦为前景。 1936年美国发行的纪念币种类繁多,递交国会建议为海湾大桥落成发行纪念币的法案就有两份,一份专为海湾大桥,另一份还加入当时一同在建的金门大桥,最终前者顺利通过,再经富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福总统签字成为法律正式生效。经过多次修改,施尼尔的设计获美国美术委员会认可,纪念币全部在旧金山铸币局生产。 这款半美元的销售形式除传统的邮购和银行发售外,还有海湾大桥附近设立的摊位,海湾大桥半美元由此成为史上首款买家可以无需下车直接在路上购买的纪念币。1937年2月发售截止时,生产的十万枚半美元共售出七万多,剩下的退回铸币局熔毁。如今这款纪念币视成色而定,价值在数百美元不等。 (zh)
