1940-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-67 (PCGS).A fully untoned, platinum-white Superb Gem with radiant luster throughout. The fields are blanketed in a distinct satiny texture that remains incredibly composed under magnification. Nicely struck for the issue, with pleasing definition to Libertys outstretched hand. With just 4.5 million coins struck, the 1940-S is among the lower mintage issues of the 1940s, falling well below the 9.1 million coins struck in Philadelphia the same year and also the 8 million struck in San Francisco in 1941. While readily available in Mint State, it is the rarest issue of this era in Gem condition and becomes even scarcer at the Superb level. The present MS-67 is among the very finest known, with only 3 graded finer by PCGS.PCGS# 6610. NGC ID: 24S2.PCGS Population: 14; 3 finer.
