1999-P 50C MS67 认证号32699544, PCGS号6776

WANTED: Upgrade to MS68 - - - - - 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: 8,900,000 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) Exemplar Notes: Acquired 11/2015 via Great Collections.

The 1999-P Half Dollar is easy to obtain in circulated grades up to about MS66 condition. In MS67 it is much harder to find but hundreds if not thousands of examples are still out there. In Ms68 condition it is scarce  with a few dozen examples known. Anything grading higher than MS67 is almost non existent and if one is found or more they would be some of the finest examples in existence.
