Description
Choice Mint State 1919-S Half Dollar
1919-S 50C MS64 PCGS. Nearly Gem quality, and in an old green-label PCGS holder. Such coins are often quite conservatively graded, at a time when the coin market was very tight and grading was perceived differently than it is today. Mint State examples of this issue are scarce at best, and may rightfully be called rarities. Only 163 Mint State 1919-S half Dollars have been certified as MS60 or finer. This is a brilliant example with considerable die polish providing satiny luster. The strike is typical for the issue with some weakness on the high points.(#6579) (Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24R2, PCGS# 6579, GSID# 6720)
