Scarce Premium Gem Monroe Commemorative Half

1923-S 50C Monroe MS66 NGC. As a general rule, the earlier silver commemorative issues are among the most difficult to locate in MS65 or better condition, and the Monroe Half Dollar is certainly a prime example. A greater percentage were sold to the non-numismatic public and the shallow relief of the design both contribute to this coin's scarcity in high grades. This near-Superb example is better struck than most of its design and the deeply surfaces are overlaid in hues of reddish-gray toning with russet and blue highlights. Population: 42 in 66, 7 finer (9/04).(#9333) (Registry values: N2998)
