| Obverse description | Right-facing bust portrait of Stephen Foster, celebrated American composer and songwriter, rendered in high relief at center. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA arcs along the upper rim, while the inscription STEPHEN FOSTER · AMERICA'S TROUBADOUR curves below the bust. The denomination HALF DOLLAR appears in the lower field. The portrait conveys a dignified, naturalistic style characteristic of American commemorative coinage of the 1930s. |
