CAC Generally speaking the quality is very poor for these proofs. There were so many problems with the 1950 Franklin Proof coins — from poor packaging causing hairlines, to sub-par dies, to glue seeping onto the coins from the packaging. Many of the coins have shallow-mirrored fields and are deeply toned or have a significant amount of haze. Problem-free coins are very scarce. And cameos and deep cameos are rare. // ONLY ABOUT 9% OF AMERICANS OWNED TELEVISION SETS IN 1950 // THE KOREAN WAR STARTED ON JUNE 25, 1950. // THE COMIC STRIP PEANUTS BY CHARLES M.

In 1950, the U.S. Mint resumed production of Proof coins, having completed the striking of war medals for distribution during and after World War II.  Interest in the new Proof sets was much higher than it had been in 1942, and the U.S. economy had improved dramatically, thus the mintage of the 1950 Proof Set exceeded 50,000 units, surpassing all previous records.

Most Proof 1950 Half Dollars have a brilliant finish.  Less than one-tenth of the certified examples have a Cameo finish, and only a small handful have a Deep Cameo Finish.
