Losbeschreibung

An original and lustrous example of this Arkansas Centennial issue. Scattered shades of bronze toning grow deeper toward the obverse border, while the reverse shows hints of golden color with areas of plum patina. Uniformly satiny and fully undisturbed by abrasions. Only a single coin ranks finer at PCGS, while none are listed higher at CAC.<p>As with their predecessor, 1939 Arkansas Centennial commemorative half dollar PDS sets were originally sold at a price of $8.75/set by Stack's. Only 2,105 sets were distributed from a mintage of 6,000, the remainder of which were melted. This is one of the finest certified survivors of the 1939-S distribution, a lovely coin eagerly awaiting inclusion in an advanced collection.
