Walking Liberty Half Dollars
1917-S 50C Obverse MS64 PCGS. CAC. The year 1917 saw the San Francisco Mint move the mintmark on the Walking Liberty half dollar from the obverse to the reverse. This is the earlier variant, scarcer than its later counterpart in Mint State. In fact, comparable near-Gems with CAC approval are exceedingly rare. Softly frosted luster glimmers over untoned and surprisingly unabraded surfaces. Incomplete central detail is likely the only factor standing in the way of a higher grade. CAC: 23 in 64, 8 finer (6/17).
