Description

1937-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-67+ (PCGS).

A crescent of vivid, multicolored toning lines the upper obverse border and delivers exceptional eye appeal for this Condition Census Superb Gem. For the reverse we note mottled sandy-gold highlights toward the upper right border. Otherwise close to brilliant, both sides are highly lustrous with a silky smooth appearance that will please even the most discerning numismatist. One of the rarer middle date Walking Liberty half dollars, the 1937-S is more challenging to collect in Mint State than the 1936-D, 1939-D, 1939-S and 1940-S, not to mention all Philadelphia Mint issues from 1934 to 1940. Few are as well preserved as the present example, and even fewer are as visually appealing. A beautiful, conditionally rare survivor fit for an advanced collection of this popular 20th century series.

PCGS# 6603. NGC ID: 24RT.

PCGS Population: 12; 0 finer.
