Description
Full Bell Lines Gem 1953-S Half
Notorious Strike Rarity
1953-S 50C MS65 Full Bell Lines PCGS. How seldom do Full
Bell Lines examples of the 1953-S half dollar come around? Heritage
averages only about one lot a year, as a glance through the
Permanent Auction Archive shows. This notorious strike rarity
seldom comes on the market, not only because few certified examples
exist, but because when collectors get hold of them, they loathe
letting them go. This Gem is a great opportunity, bright and
lightly frosted with gold-orange patina at the left obverse and
reverse and a smidgen of blue between LIBERTY and IN on the
obverse. A single vertical abrasion at the back of Franklin's head
contributes to the grade. Population: 22 in 65 Full Bell Lines, 1
finer (11/11).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24T8, PCGS# 86666, Greysheet# 6841)
Weight: 12.50 grams
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
