1907 Half Dollar, Frosty MS66
Conditionally Rare

1907 50C MS66 PCGS. CAC. Frosty mint luster shines through a blush of light golden toning on each side of this Premium Gem example, with overall exceptional surface preservation observed on each side. A touch of softness is seen on the eagle's left shoulder, but the details are otherwise sharply defined. Housed in an old green label holder.

Population Data (5/14): This is one of just four MS66 examples certified by PCGS, with only one numerically finer; NGC has seen only three pieces in this grade, with none finer.

Heritage Commentary: Many of the later issues in this series are viewed only as common dates due to rather substantial mintages and proportionately high populations in circulated grades, but are seemingly under-appreciated in the finer Mint State levels of preservation. The 1907 is a prime example; the Philadelphia Mint produced nearly 2.6 million representatives, but Gem survivors are rarely encountered, and finer pieces are prohibitively rare.(Registry values: N2998)
