***Auction Highlight*** 1916-d Walking Liberty Half Dollar 50c Graded ms66 By SEGS. This gorgeous Gem Mint State example is bursting with frosty luster. The mostly untoned example reveals only a trace of pale-gold tinting at certain angles. With a razor-sharp strike and smooth-looking surfaces, there is much to recommend this coin to the advanced Walker specialist Even though the dies for the new Walking Liberty half dollar did not arrive at the Denver Mint until November 27, 1916, the branch mint managed to strike 1,014,400 of the new coins before year's end, almost as many as at the Philadelphia and San Francisco mints combined. For 1916 and part of 1917, the mintmark was located on the obverse; later in 1917 it was moved to the reverse and a short-lived minor subtype was created. Premium quality MS-66s such as this are scarce in an absolute sense and rare from a market availability standpoint. Here is a significant opportunity for the quality conscious aficionado of 20th century silver. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
