MS66 1923-S Monroe Half
Extraordinary Condition Rarity

1923-S 50C Monroe MS66 PCGS. CAC. The shallow relief of Chester Beach's design did not seem to protect the central devices of these coins from abrasions. The Monroe half is one of the most easily marked coins in the entire commemorative series. With that in mind, when one views the conjoined busts on the obverse of this piece the clean surfaces are nothing less than remarkable. Each side is also heavily frosted and covered with speckled golden-rose and blue toning. An important condition rarity among commemorative halves. Population: 54 in 66, 4 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N2998)
