This is a fully original Gem with speckled russet highlights to otherwise dominant pearl gray patina. The strike is bold, if not sharp over all design elements, and lustrous surfaces are expectably smooth at the assigned grade level. Popular not only as the first Denver Mint Walking Liberty half dollar, the 1916-D is also a lower mintage issue with 1,014,400 pieces produced. Widely saved at the time of striking, this is now the most plentiful early date Walker in Mint State after only the 1917. Clearly this handsome MS-65 will appeal to not only series specialists, but also high grade type collectors.，PCGS# 6567. NGC ID: 24PM.，，
