2024 Harriet Tubman Commemorative Clad Uncirculated Reverse
The U.S. Mint released the 2024 Harriet Tubman Half Dollar Clad Coin as part of the Harriet Tubman Commemorative Coin Program. The program celebrates the bicentennial of Harriet Tubman's birth. The Mint struck $5 gold coins, $1 silver coins, and half dollar clad coins as part of the program. The designs follow the three periods of Tubmans' life and work.
The half dollar designs represent her work as a scout, spy, and nurse for the Union Army during the Civil War.
The obverse (heads) depicts Harriet Tubman, who distinguished herself as the first woman to lead an armed expedition in the Civil War. The Combahee River Raid resulted in more than 700 enslaved persons in South Carolina being freed. In the background, two Civil War-era boats represent the raid.
The reverse (tails) depicts Harriet Tubman holding a spyglass in front of a row of Civil War-era tents, symbolizing her work as a scout and spy for the Union Army during the Civil War.
