Walking Liberty Half Dollars
1917-S 50C Reverse MS66 PCGS Secure. The design of the Walking Liberty half dollar was modified partway through the year in 1917 by moving the mintmark to the reverse. More than 5.5 million pieces of the new design type were struck that year, but the issue is much more difficult to locate in high grade than the large production total would suggest. At the MS66 grade level the issue is very rare, and finer coins are virtually unobtainable.
The present coin is an impressive Premium Gem with well-detailed design elements that show just a touch of the typical softness on Liberty's head. The surfaces are impeccably preserved and display highlights of sea-green and lavender-gray toning. Satiny mint luster adds to the outstanding eye appeal. Population: 12 in 66 (2 in 66+), 0 finer (6/17).
