Owner's Description

NGC graded MS 66
Variety: V-1

This coin may be my favorite in the set. It has fairly deep, beautiful toning, a full strike, only a few of the most trivial marks, and intense luster. It truly is a joy to behold. Despite being from the final year of half dime production, such that one might imagine that more might be saved, only a dozen or so are graded this fine or better. Even so, this was the least expensive member of the set (among those I have no intention to upgrade).

Luster: 5/5
