2011-D 50C MS68 认证号19900519, PCGS号505192

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: Denver Production Strikes: 1,750,000 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: Beginning in 2002, Kennedy Half Dollars have only been struck to satisfy the demand from collectors. Having concluded its' six-year "experiment" with the Satin Finish production process the previous year, the 2011 Kennedy Half Dollars were once again only available in a business strike, however, these remained available only for purchase directly from the Mint beginning February 15, 2011, in either US Mint Uncirculated Coin Sets, 20-coin rolls, and 100-coin bags as no coins were produced for circulation. Exemplar Notes: One of only eight graded as MS68 with none finer (as of 5/2016), this gem was acquired 3/2014 from Michael Kelly. Photography/Imaging c/o Todd Pollock, BluCCPhotos.com
