1962-D 50C, FBL MS (PCGS#86683)

The Regency Auction 44

Description du lot: Late date Franklin half dollars were struck in quantity, but not quality. The 62-D is usually weakly struck and/or hacked up, and as such, this date is VERY RARE in such a high grade. The present GEM is a very pleasing, high quality example that defies the typical survivor. Well struck devices stand out from generally clean surfaces. Greenish-gold patina blends together over satiny, frosty surfaces, likely from long term storage in an original Mint Set. The eye appeal is very nice. PCGS 50, NGC 10, CAC 7. The most recent example sold for $1,140 in October 2020. The CAC CPG value is $1,440 and the Collectors Universe value is $1,600. Only four are graded finer, all MS66+ FBL and NONE have ever sold in auction, but if one were to sell, it would likely break into the five figures. If you're building a set, don't let this one pass you by! Cert. Number 25648749 PCGS # 86683.00
