1950-D Booker T. Washington Half Dollar
Sharply Detailed Superb Gem
1950-D 50C Booker T. Washington MS67 PCGS. CAC. A series of
silver commemorative half dollars honoring the life and
accomplishments of Booker T. Washington was authorized by Congress
in 1946, and large numbers of the coins were produced at all three
mints through 1951. Although many examples were sold through
various distributors over the years, numismatic demand failed to
meet the optimistic production totals. In 1950 the Denver Mint
produced more than 12,000 specimens, but only half that number were
actually distributed. The coins were poorly produced, and
high-quality coins with well-struck details are elusive today.The present coin is a spectacular Superb Gem showing sharply detailed design elements. The pristine surfaces display hints of attractive golden-tan toning amid vibrant mint luster on both sides. Eye appeal is extraordinary. Population: 23 in 67 (1 in 67+), 0 finer. CAC: 14 in 67, 0 finer (2/19).
