详细说明

1929-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-66+ (PCGS). An impressive Gem with a brilliant obverse, golden-tinged reverse, and intense luster throughout. Satiny in texture and free of disturbances. Mint-made die polish lines in the reverse field contribute to the desirability. Trailing only the 1933-S, the 1929-S is the second most available San Francisco Mint half dollar of the 1916 to 1933 era. As with its identically dated Denver Mint counterpart, the onset of the Great Depression kept many examples from being released until the mid 1930s, by which time the coins were desired by contemporary numismatists and speculators. While Mint State examples can be found without much difficulty, they are seldom encountered above MS-65. The present MS-66+ is among the very finest survivors from the 1.9 million pieces struck, and is an ideal candidate for inclusion in a top-flight Walking Liberty half dollar set. NGC Census: 7; 4 finer (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 6590. NGC ID: 24RD. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
