- Near Gem 1919-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar
A Leading Rarity in the Series
1919-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-64+ (PCGS). CAC.
Lightly toned in iridescent gold, this captivating near-Gem exhibits full satin luster to overall smooth surfaces. The strike is far above average for the issue with sharp detail to Liberty's head and left hand on the obverse and emerging definition to the eagle's breast feathers on the reverse. Trailing only the 1921-S, the 1919-S is the second rarest Walking Liberty half dollar in terms of total number of Mint State survivors known. A lower mintage (1,552,000 pieces) issue that saw extensive commercial use, even low end Uncirculated coins in the MS-60 to MS-63 range are elusive in today's market. Near-Gems such as this are scarce, while any example that grades finer is decidedly rare. Remarkably well produced, as well, this carefully preserved and visually appealing piece is sure to catch the eye of the astute Walking Liberty half dollar specialist.
PCGS Population: 13; 58 finer through MS-66.
PCGS# 6579. NGC ID: 24R2.
