- Gem Mint State 1921 Walking Liberty Half
Low Mintage Key-Date
1921 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS).
Overall brilliant and pearly white, with a faint dusting of patina visible under scrutiny. Both sides are fully endowed with vibrant, frosty mint luster. The strike is as close to full as one could realistically expect in an example of this early date Walking Liberty half dollar issue, and the surfaces are virtually distraction free and solidly graded at the Gem level. This prized rarity has always been in high demand, as the low mintage of 246,000 pieces pointed early attention to these, but not until most had already entered circulation. Demand for new half dollars was low that year as the world economy adjusted sharply reflecting the changes from war driven production to peacetime activities as World War I had concluded a few years prior. Of those 1921 half dollars saved, not many retain the Gem level surfaces desired by many collectors so pricing pressure has always been rather high when a Gem does appear on the market. With just nine coins certified finer by PCGS, this is an exceptional example of this key date and destined for a high end cabinet or Registry Set.
PCGS Population: 54; just 9 finer through MS-66.
PCGS# 6583. NGC ID: 24R6.
