- 1942 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. Proof-68 (PCGS).
A magnificent Ultra Gem offering spectacular eye appeal and surface quality. The pearly silver patina is accented by subtle tones of pinkish-rose and sandy-gold iridescence that appears to drift toward the borders. Sharply struck with strong reflectivity in the fields and virtually no signs of handling under a glass. The Proof 1942 Walking Liberty half dollar is an historic issue struck at the dawn of the United States' official entry into World War II. It represents not only the final Proof issue of the Walking Liberty series, but the last Proof half dollar struck until 1950 when the Franklin series was already underway. 21,120 Proof halves were struck in 1942, though only about half of them survive in grades of Proof-65 or higher. The present PCGS Proof-68 is surely among the most exceptional known.
PCGS Population: 90; 12 finer (Proof-69 finest).
PCGS# 6642. NGC ID: 27V9.
