I found a coin. On the front it says:
Colorado rush to the rockies centennial 1859 1959
With a picture of a wagon being pulled by ox. There is also a cowboy. And what looks like an Indian artifact.
On the back:
Fort Morgan 75th Anniversary 1884 1959 Diamond Jubilee Good for 50 cents in trade at any cooperative business or redeemable at face value at any bank in Fort Morgan until noon Aug. 7 1959 Souvenir Money
I searched everywhere on the net. I can't find anything about this. Can anyone shed some light? Can it be worth anything?

You do not have a coin but have a trade token. They are and have been made for events for a good many years, going back to at least the late 1800's maybe even longer. Canada is famous for its trade dollars put out by a lot of it's cities. The U.S. has the dollar but also the 1/2 dollar. It does have a value but you need to find the right person. That is easier today due to Internet auctions. I have bought that type token for as low as a dollar and some of the bigger ones for over $10. I bet if you put Fort Morgan 75th anniversary 1/2 dollar in google you will find more about it.
