Whitman Expo
The rare coin market so far in 2026 has been somewhat volatile, with greater price swings happening over a shorter period of time when compared to historical norms.

The 1935 Boone half dollars mark the continuation of a commemorative series honoring the 200th anniversary of American explorer and folk hero Daniel Boone, who was born in 1734 and helped settle the lands to be known as Kentucky. The Boone half dollar was designed by Augustus Lukeman and was minted over the course of five years, beginning in 1934.
With a mintage of 10,010, the production of Philadelphia-minted 1935 Boone half dollars was twice as large as the Denver and San Francisco examples at 5,005 each, and the Philly issue remains the most common of these today. Most are encountered in various uncirculated grades, mainly in the MS63-66 range. Examples grading MS67 or higher are rare, though the majority of 1935 Boone half dollars exhibit decent luster and overall eye appeal.
