1912-S 50C MS67 NGC
<B>1912-S 50C MS67 NGC.</B></I> Only two 1912-S half dollars have received a grade of MS67 from either of the major grading services--the Hugon specimen, which we sold in our January 2005 F.U.N. Auction, and the present piece. Whereas the Hugon coin was described as having semi-prooflike surfaces, that is not the case with this coin, which is covered throughout in a pleasing iridescent satin luster. Sharply struck, with a trace of weakness visible only on the right (facing) wing and the shield opposite. As befits the grade, the surfaces have a minimum of contact marks, none of which distract, and few of which are visible without a loupe. This coin presents an opportunity to acquire the finest possible example of this date, and as such should attract spirited bidding.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Charles E.
