Owner Comments:
This coin was included in a special mint set designed for kids -- Basketball Hall of Fame 2020 Enhanced Uncirculated Clad Half Dollar Kids Set -- and features a special, enhanced finish with shiny details.
In 2020, a commemorative half dollar was belatedly issued beyond it's scheduled release date to honor the 60th anniversary of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. This coin, like the Baseball Hall of Fame commemorative, was struck in a unique domed or concave/convex shape (3rd time this shape was used to produce a commemorative). The obverse of the 2020-S "SP Ehnanced Finish" half dollar features three players reaching for a basketball -- one male, one female, and one in a wheelchair. The reverse is a cool, domed image of a basketball falling inside the rim of the bucket/net.
