Old Spanish Trail half dollar 老西班牙小径半美元
rdfs:comment
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。 The Old Spanish Trail half dollar is a commemorative coin struck by the United States Bureau of the Mint in 1935. The coin was designed by L. W. Hoffecker, a coin dealer, who also was in charge of its distribution.

dbp:quote
There is no particular reason why he [Hoffecker] or anyone else should have sold commemoratives for purely altruistic reasons. While [coin dealers] Wayte Raymond, Stack's, B. Max Mehl, and others acted as distributors and thus were not the focal point of many complaints, Hoffecker dreamed up the scheme, much as C. Frank Dunn did for the Boones, and the fact that he was not chastised by the numismatic community is a testimonial to his adroit sense of politicking and public relations.

dbo:abstract
The Old Spanish Trail half dollar is a commemorative coin struck by the United States Bureau of the Mint in 1935. The coin was designed by L. W. Hoffecker, a coin dealer, who also was in charge of its distribution. In 1930, President Herbert Hoover vetoed the Gadsden Purchase half dollar bill. Hoffecker had been the moving force behind that effort, and he sought another commemorative coin proposal that he could control if authorizing legislation was passed. He chose the travels of Spanish officer Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca in the early 16th century. Hoffecker took liberties both with the timing of Cabeza de Vaca's travels and their location. For instance, although Hoffecker's hometown of El Paso, Texas, is featured on the coin, Cabeza de Vaca came nowhere near it. All this made little difference to Congress, which passed the Old Spanish Trail coin bill without opposition. It was signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Once they were struck, Hoffecker purchased the coins from the government and sold them to collectors, ostensibly on behalf of the local museum, but in fact for his personal profit, something he later denied in testimony before Congress. There were no complaints about the distribution printed in the pages of The Numismatist (a journal on coin collecting) and Hoffecker went on to the presidency of the American Numismatic Association in 1939. Hoffecker's design for the coin, featuring the head of a cow, has brought mixed reviews from numismatic commentators. The fact that only 10,000 of the half dollars were struck has made them prized among those seeking to complete a "type set" of early commemorative coins—that is, one coin of each different design. 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。
