Auction 388 | Lot 2969 » Half Dollars » Franklin Half Dollars
1960-D 50C MS66 NGC. In spite of its substantial mintage of 18.2 million pieces, the 1960-D is surprisingly scarce in Gem and better grades. In MS66 it is especially elusive with only eight other pieces so graded by NGC, and one by PCGS (none are finer). An interesting story is related about these NGC MS66 coins in Rick Tomaska's book on Franklin halves (2002): "Some of the NGC coins featured spectacular color--deep iridescent purple, golden-olive on both obverse and reverse. The first reaction upon seeing these coins is that they were artificially toned. However, both NGC and PCGS has concluded they are genuine. This author agrees. The story behind this unusual group of superb 1960-D's is that they belonged to a customer who lived in a small town dominated by a sulphur mine. The continuous sulphur fumes coming from the mine certainly would have affected any silver coins in a manner consistent with the toning found on the monster 1960-D's." Tomaska then goes on to relate that, "The NGC coins (not FBL) last traded in the $3,000-$5,000 range. Considering the rarity and spectacular eye-appeal, those prices must be considered a bargain."

This is a fantastically toned coin. We can add no more to Mr. Tomaska's assessment from several years ago, except to say that we believe this coin will sell at the upper end of the value estimate he related.

1960-D MS 66 NGC. This 1960-D is not the rarest coin in this exceptional set. It is not the highest graded. It is not a great strike rarity (in fact, this piece doesn't even have full bell lines). Nor is it the most abrasion-free. But, this is unquestionably our favorite coin from this 55-coin consignment. And that is saying quite a lot considering the other coins offered for sale. This blatant favoritism is based solely on the outrageous color seen over each side. Most of each side is covered in deep shadings of scarlet-purple with jade-green centers of indescribable depth of color and beauty. Bright luster lies underneath the color and enlivens the surfaces even more. Expect the unexpected when this piece crosses the auction block.

1960-D 50C MS66 NGC. The 1960-D has a mintage above 18 million pieces, but many of those that escaped circulation contributed to the great silver melt of 1980. Uncirculated survivors with fields as smooth as the present Premium Gem are few and far between. Brilliant and lustrous with minor contact on the bell. Census: 9 in 66, 0 finer (10/06).
