What did the 1889 American flag look like in 1889?

The American flag in 1889 featured 13 horizontal stripes, alternating red and white, representing the original 13 colonies, and had 38 stars arranged in five rows of eight stars each, representing the states of the Union at that time. The stars were white and set against a blue field in the upper left corner, known as the canton. This design was officially adopted on July 4, 1877, and remained until the addition of stars for new states. The flag's color scheme of red, white, and blue symbolized valor, purity, and justice, respectively.


How many US flags have circles?

The United States has had two flags that feature circles: the 13-star flag used from 1777 to 1795, which arranged the stars in a circular pattern, and the 50-star flag, adopted in 1960, which has the stars in nine rows of alternating five and six. The circular arrangement of stars symbolizes unity among the states. Other flags, such as state flags or military flags, may also feature circular designs, but these are not official US flags.


Who decided the original US flag?

On June 14, 1777 the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution that established our Nation's flag: Resolved: that the flag of the United States be made of thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new Constellation. Thus we recognize June 14th as Flag Day in the United States.The original design of the flag is a mystery of history. The "Betsy Ross flag" with a circle of 13 five-pointed stars was probably NOT our first flag design. Rather Francis Hopkinson's flag design is more likely since he was in the loop with the Continental Congress at the time of the signing of the Flag Resolution. The "Hopkinson Flag" featured 5 rows of six-pointed stars: numbered 3-2-3-2-3. He also helped design the official seal of the US was a signer of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and there is documentation where he asked to be reimbursed for the design work of the new flag. He was not paid since he was considered a "public servant" at the time.

What is a 1950 D nickel worth?

Depends on the conditon. Okay...duh...doh...but really. Only 2,630,030 were minted and because of the low mintage many people began to hoard them. You can purchase a very nice 1950D nickel on EBAY for as little as $20.00 if you are willing to be patient and wait for a good buy. I have seen a roll of uncirculated 1950D Jefferson nickels sell for $400.00. If you are going to purchase a circulated 50D, you will want to pay close attention to the number of steps on the reverse of the coin. This is one of the major areas collectors want to see. You will want to be able to see at least 4 rows of steps and hopefully 5 rows. Hope the helps a little. Have a great day.
