Description
1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-66 (NGC).
Tis lovely premium Gem is brilliant on the obverse with the faintest trace of iridescent gold toning on the reverse. Both sides are intensely lustrous with a smooth, satiny texture. Sharply to fully struck, as well, and sure to please even the most discerning Walking Liberty half dollar enthusiast. Saved in significant quantities as a first year issue, the 1916 is more plentiful in Mint State than a limited mintage of 608,000 pieces might imply. Demand for this popular date remains strong, however, with the result that high grade examples in MS-64 and MS-65 are scarce from a market availability standpoint. In MS-66 the 1916 is very scarce in an absolute sense, and with the quality and eye appeal it possesses, the present example is sure to sell for a strong premium.
PCGS# 6566. NGC ID: 24PL.
