Description
1921 2x2 Alabama Centennial Half, MS67
Captivating Fresh Mint Bloom
1921 50C Alabama 2x2 MS67 NGC. CAC. The earliest production
run of the Alabama Centennial half dollar was with dies that
featured a small "2x2" notation in the right obverse field,
denoting attention to Alabama's status as the 22nd state admitted
into the Union. This notation was later removed from the obverse
hub, however, and the remainder of the 1921 commemorative's
production was of the so-called "Plain" obverse variety. Mintage
figures are not concretely known for either variety, although their
survival rates are remarkably similar, even in high grades. This
magnificent 2x2 example is among the finest certified by either
leading grading service. The luminous, mint-fresh surfaces capture
the eye with frosty luster shining through intermingled ice-blue
and amber-gold hues. The strike is boldly executed, and close study
with a glass fails to find any significant abrasions. The eye
appeal alone sets this piece apart from its peers. Census: 4 in 67
(1 in 67 ★ ), 0 finer (3/15).From The Virginia Cabinet.(Registry values: N7079)
