Proof Franklin Half Dollars
1960 50C PR69 Deep Cameo PCGS. Ex: Blue Ocean. A new master die was put into use in 1960. The previous one had been used for an entire decade, causing many proofs from that era to lack contrast and show somewhat mushy detail. Such is not the case with this practically perfect PR69 Deep Cameo half dollar. Franklin's hair and the bell lines are razor-sharp. The fields are consistently reflective on each side, producing even contrast throughout. This issue should pose minimal difficulty all the way through PR68 Deep Cameo, but coins at this grade level are extremely rare. Population: 10 in 69 Deep Cameo, 0 finer (6/17).
