Description
Elusive Near-Gem 1928-S Half Dollar
1928-S 50C MS64 PCGS. A member of the sporadically issued Walking Liberty halves between the 1921-S and 1933-S issues, the 1928-S was produced to the extent of a mere 1.9 million coins. The near-Gem level is an "elusive but obtainable" grade for these pieces, while Gems are difficult. This is a lustrous silver-gold example, with sprinkles of cinnamon on the obverse and a uniformly silver-gold reverse. The strike is soft through the centers. An interesting die crack on the reverse runs through the eagle's right (facing) wing. PCGS has certified 61 coins finer (7/10).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24RB, PCGS# 6588, GSID# 6727)
