1953-S Franklin Half, MS65 Full Bell Lines
Conditionally Scarce Key Issue

1953-S 50C MS65 Full Bell Lines PCGS. Any serious Registry Set collector of business strike Franklin half dollars should be mindful of this coin's inclusion in our upcoming Central States Auction. The 1953-S is one of the key issues in the series, especially when examples with Full Bell Lines are discussed. Only 23 Gems with this important caveat have been designated as such by PCGS, and the company has graded just one finer piece as MS66 Full Bell Lines (3/14).

This lustrous, untoned Gem, with shimmering surfaces that exhibit outstanding preservation, is one of the most attractive examples of this San Francisco date that we have examined in recent years. Minimal marks exist on each side, and are fully in-line with the MS65 assessment by PCGS.(Registry values: N4719)
