Description
Popular and Scarce Gem 1896 Half Dollar
1896 50C MS65 NGC. The 1896 is a popular type coin with collectors, as it is relatively available in lower grades and still has the charm of a 19th century date. But it is surprisingly scarce in Gem condition. NGC has only graded eight coins in MS65 with two finer, while PCGS has certified 11 Gems, with four finer (1/08). This lovely MS65 example is brilliant on both sides, with a hint of pastel-golden color. The strike details show pinpoint definition on each side. One small, angling mark is mentioned on the lower part of Liberty's neck.From The Southwest Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
