Low-Mintage 1938-D Half Dollar, MS66

1938-D 50C MS66 PCGS. Though the 1938-D has the third lowest mintage of the series (491,600 pieces), it was quickly recognized as a mintage rarity and saved in considerable numbers. The current Premium Gem example displays radiantly lustrous, virtually untoned surfaces that are impeccably preserved, save for a few minute marks on the lower skirt. The design elements are well impressed, with partial definition apparent on the left thumb. PCGS has seen just 23 examples grading higher (2/09).
