Description
1976-D Bicentennial Half, MS65
Deep Die Cap and Brockage
1976-D 50C Clad Bicentennial Half Dollar -- Deep Die Cap and
Brockage -- MS65 PCGS. The first strike for the present half
dollar took place between the obverse die and the obverse of a
previously struck coin (not included). The reverse of the coin
exhibited a brockage of the obverse. The obverse stuck to the
obverse die, while the previously struck coin was ejected. The
present coin then became a surrogate obverse die for a series of
newly fed planchets (not included), with each coined between the
reverse die and the present coin. The additional strikes caused the
present coin to wrap partly around the obverse die, creating a
fairly steep cap. On the brockage reverse, the reversed and incused
image of Kennedy expanded with each strike as it was flattened
against incoming planchets. The obverse is attractively toned
lilac-red, sea-green, and autumn-gold.From The Blue Angel Collection of Bicentennial Errors.
