Lot Description

Here is an impressively sharp 1920-D half dollar, with both sides offering essentially full detail. Lightly and attractively toned in iridescent champagne-pink and golden-apricot, as well, the surfaces are smooth with a delightful frosty texture to the finish. This is one of the more difficult Walking Liberty half dollars to find in high grades, and thankfully for collectors, many come well struck. This piece is no exception, and where it really stands tall is the quality of the surfaces, for seldom are fields and devices found so smooth and attractive as confirmed by the Choice Mint State grade from PCGS. An underrated condition rarity among early date Walking Liberty half dollars that deserves more recognition in today's numismatic market.
