UNITED STATES: AR 50 cents, 1936, KM-185, Rhode Island Tercentenary Commemorative, wheel mark, PCGS graded Unc details. In honor of the 300th anniversary of the founding of the Colony, the Rhode Island and Providence Plantations Tercentenary Committee was founded. They sought a coin commemorating the founding of Providence, and on May 2, 1935, a mintage of 50,000 coins from the three mints was authorized. The obverse features Roger Williams coming ashore in a small boat with a Bible in his hand. He is being greeted by a Native American whose hand is extended as if to help him disembark. A stalk of corn is to their left, and a sunset is seen behind them. The reverse is dominated by a representation of the state seal of Rhode Island.
