Not Sold Description
1887 Half Dollar, MS65
Splendidly Toned
1887 50C WB-101 MS65 PCGS. A mere 5,000 half dollars were
struck for commerce during 1887, since the Mint presses were busy
striking silver dollars instead. Philadelphia-area dealers were
aware the mintage would be low, and set aside 100 to 200 business
examples in Uncirculated grades. Today, however, the issue is very
scarce as a Gem. The present example is noteworthy for its lavish
toning. Cobalt-blue borders encompass autumn-brown fields and
devices. Population: 20 in 65, 23 finer (8/24).Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 572272, Base PCGS# 6369)
