The Price, Duckor 1907 Barber Half Dollar

1907 50C MS65 PCGS. The mintage of 1907 half dollars was well over 2 million coins, yet few of those survive in Gem quality. In the early years of the 20th century, collectors preferred Proof examples for their sets, thus business strikes were saved by few. Those that survive do so purely as a matter of chance. Maybe someone threw one in their sock drawer, only to be discovered decades later. Whatever the reason, these coins are especially elusive today. This is a sharply struck Gem with golden-brown, ivory, and lilac coloration on the obverse. The reverse is brilliant with satiny luster and pale gold toning. Population: 19 in 65, 3 finer (9/04).
