None Finer at PCGS
1950 Franklin Half Dollar. MS-67+ FBL (PCGS).
Breathtakingly beautiful surfaces are wonderfully original with the most vivid cobalt blue, salmon pink and orange-gold toning ringing much of the obverse periphery. Otherwise brilliant apart from pale milky-gold overtones, both sides are highly lustrous with full mint frost. Razor sharp striking detail and a virtually pristine appearance are also strong suits for this impressive condition rarity. The Philadelphia Mint's third contribution to the circulation strike Franklin half dollar series, the 1950 has a generous mintage of 7,742,123 pieces. Attractively toned Uncirculated survivors, as here, are scarce by the standards of the type, primarily because the Treasury Department did not issue any Mint Sets in 1950. As a Superb Gem with the coveted Full Bell Lines designation from PCGS, the present example is also decidedly rare from a condition standpoint. A find for the advanced Franklin half dollar enthusiast that is sure to sell for a premium bid.
