Description
George V 50 Cents 1911, KM19, MS65 PCGS. The first-year George V coins feature the "Godless" obverse, which lacks the abbreviation DEI GRA (for DEI GRATIA, by the Grace of God). The 1911 is one of the more challenging George V 50 Cents issues in Uncirculated grades. It very rare in MS65, with just three pieces so graded by PCGS (7/09).The present coin has layers of rose-gold, light green, blue, violet toning on the top and bottom of the obverse, with occasional wafts of color in the mostly untoned middle region. The reverse is completely covered with deep purple and red patina. Shimmering satiny luster drapes the obverse, while the reverse has slightly subdued reflectivity. An outstanding representative of this interesting type.
