- The Missouri commemorative half dollar was issued to mark the 100th anniversary of the admission of that state into the Union. The authorizing Act of March 4, 1921, allowed for a maximum mintage of 250,000 coins, but only 50,000 pieces were struck: 5,000 with 2x4 in the left obverse field (signifying Missouri as the 24th state), and 45,000 without this feature. Lagging sales resulted in 29,600 examples of the plain variant being returned to the Mint for melting, although all of the 2x4 coins were distributed. With most survivors grading no finer than MS-64, this essentially brilliant and highly lustrous Gem with CAC approval is a superior example of the variety.
