Well true to my nature, I had
decided that I would collect the whole series of 1959 Heraldic Art Medals after
I received the Hawaii Statehood Medal. I had originally intended to only
purchase the Alaska Statehood and the St. Lawrence Seaaway medals to complete
the 1959 So-Called Half Dollars, but found this beautiful set on Ebay and HAD,
I mean, HAD to have it. I juggled a few things, ignored a few household
bills (bye bye Fiat) and I am now the proud owner of this set of three
originally sold by Mr. McNamara himself.
