1919 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-66 (PCGS). CAC. OGH. This is an exceptionally well preserved and attractive example of an issue that is scarce even in lower Mint State grades. Virtually full in striking detail, both sides also offer mint luster in a smooth frosty texture. Beautifully toned, as well, we note iridescent pinkish-rose toning that leaves much of the central obverse brilliant. Instantly recognizable as a key date issue, the 1919 has one of the lowest mintages in the Walking Liberty half dollar series with just 962,000 coins struck. It is ninth rarest in Mint State of the 26 issues between 1916 and 1933, ranking behind only the 1921-S, 1919-S, 1919-D, 1921-D, 1920-D, 1917-S Obverse Mintmark, 1921 and 1923-S. Gems are in the distinct minority among survivors, and the present example would serve as a highlight in even the finest Walking Liberty half dollar set. From the Larry H. Miller Collection.
