- Superior Gem 1919 Half Dollar
1919 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS).
This is an exceptionally well preserved and attractive 1919 half dollar, an issue that is scarce even in lower Mint State grades. Virtually full in striking detail, both sides also offer smooth, frosty mint luster. Lightly and originally toned, as well, we note wisps of iridescent gold that appear to drift toward the rims.
Instantly recognizable as a key date issue, the 1919 has one of the lowest mintages in the Walking Liberty half dollar series with just 962,000 coins struck. It is ninth rarest in Mint State of the 26 issues between 1916 and 1933. Gems are in the distinct minority among survivors, and the present example would serve as a highlight in an advanced Walking Liberty half dollar set.
