Description

1916 50C MS66 PCGS. A fairly even coating of steel-gray toning blankets each side, and lends a fully original appearance. A magnificently preserved Premium Gem with good underlying luster. The strike is bold on Liberty's branch hand and head, and the eagle's often problematic back leg is also crisply rendered. The initial Philadelphia Mint issue of this popular series also has one of the lowest business strike productions of the type. Population: 70 in 66, 4 finer (2/09).
Ex: Heritage (3/2006), lot 1517.
