Proof Walking Liberty Half Dollars
1942 50C PR69 NGC. For the entire seven-year series and across both certification services, only 11 proof Walking Liberty half dollars have achieved the unsurpassed PR69 grade -- nine of these are in the 1942 issue. For type collectors of proof coinage and Registry Set competitors, this remarkable, near-perfect 1942 proof Walker is unsurpassable in both quality and eye appeal. Vivid shades of emerald-green and lavender toning visit the deeply reflective surfaces, but the centers remain essentially brilliant. The design elements are fully struck, and no mentionable distractions are evident. Eye appeal is terrific. The record price realized for this issue belongs to the PR69 PCGS specimen in lot 4138 of the Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 2/2005), which realized $46,000. The present coin is equally attractive and important. Census: 8 in 69 (1 in 69★), 0 finer (2/17).
