- 1958 Franklin Half Dollar. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC.
This wonderfully original example appears to have spent decades stored in an original Mint set holder. Both sides exhibit partial crescents of rose-russet and golden-olive peripheral toning to otherwise silver-gray surfaces. The texture is smooth and frosty, and the strike is sharp to full over virtually all design elements. An underrated strike and condition rarity, Rick Tomaska describes the 1958 as the most poorly produced Philadelphia Mint half dollar of the 1948 to 1960 era (A Guide Book of Franklin & Kennedy Half Dollars, Third Edition, 2018). This issue is rare in the finest Mint State grades even without a Full Bell Lines designation, the coin offered here representing a fleeting bidding opportunity for the astute Franklin half dollar collector. Outstanding!
