1940-S Walking Liberty Half, MS67+
Attractive Rainbow Border Toning
A Condition Census Rarity

1940-S 50C MS67+ PCGS. Ex: Simpson. The 1940-S Walking Liberty half dollar is plentiful in most grades, but in MS67 it is a major condition rarity. In this grade it is significantly rarer than its Philadelphia counterpart, and no higher-grade pieces are known. The present coin is one of just three MS67s at PCGS with a Plus designation, placing it in the Condition Census for this issue. Moreover, it is beautifully toned around the periphery with lovely rainbow rings, while the interiors display warm golden color. Strike sharpness is outstanding, and neither side has bothersome abrasions. This is only the second Plus-graded example in this grade that we have seen. The importance to Registry collectors is unmatched. Population: 17 in 67 (3 in 67+), 0 finer (8/20).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24S2, PCGS# 6610, Greysheet# 6742)
