Boldly Struck Gem 1933-S Half Dollar
'The Last of the First'

1933-S 50C MS65 PCGS. The "last of the first," the 1933-S forms the final low-mintage issue from the early years of the Walking Liberty half dollar series. This a lovely grayish-gold Gem with cinnamon and charcoal accents at the peripheries and a bold strike, as usual for this well-produced issue. Note the split on the hand between thumb and forefinger, and the actual presence of visible feathers on the eagle's lower legs. PCGS has certified only 83 pieces finer, less duplicates as always (5/10).
