Is yet another addition to the illustrious 60% is good enough set.
Received the Bridgeport CT half dollar in the mail today and it represents the completion of the Connecticut commemorative subset consisting of the Connecticut Tercentenary Half and the Bridgeport Half.
Both of these coins have very Art Deco Eagles on their reverse and the EAgle on this Bridgeport Half, when turned upside down, actually resembles a Shark, mouth agape, about to attack.
The Eagle similarities are no coincidence as both CT coins were designed by Mr. Henry Kreis. Love his Eagles and love his Charter Oak, not sure if I am as fond of Mr. Barnum. But I am happy to add his stern visage to my collection.
Good Night,
Malcolm
