1991-P 50C MS67 认证号73323569, PCGS号6759

Type: Kennedy Half Dollar, Type 3, Copper-Nickel Clad (1971- ) Designer: Gilroy Roberts / Frank Gasparro Content: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel over a pure Copper center Weight: 11.30 grams Diameter: 30.61 millimeters Edge: Reeded (150 reeds) Mint: Philadelphia Production Strikes: 14,874,000 General Type Description: Beginning in 1971, all silver was removed from the Half Dollar, in favor of the same copper-nickel clad alloy that had been in use on Dimes and Quarter Dollars since 1965. Mintages remained low relative to all other denominations, with the result that the Half Dollar was seldom used or seen in circulation (a situation that persists today). Though somewhat lengthy, this series is easy and affordable to collect as either circulation strikes, Proofs, or both. Some dates, such as 1987-P and D, 2001-P, 2002-P and D, and others were not issued for circulation but are available only in Mint sets, adding a bit of a challenge. Major varieties include a 1972 No “FG” and a 1974 Doubled Die Obverse. (Source: Guth, Ron. PCGS CoinFacts) Specific Issue Description: The 1991-P Kennedy Half Dollar has one of the lower mintages in the Kennedy Half Dollar series, with the exception of several coins struck after 1998 as mintages were significantly lower for some issues after this year. The 1991-P Kennedy Half Dollars were struck decently and examples up to about MS65 can be found easily. In MS66 they are much more difficult but they are somewhat common that they can be purchased inexpensively either certified or raw. In MS67 condition they are very difficult to find and worth a significant premium. Anything grading higher than MS67 is a very rare coin, as few examples if any are known in this condition.
