Description du lot

This is an exceptionally sharp, virtually pristine Superb Gem, the surfaces as lustrous and smooth as on the day of issue. Both sides are dusted with delicate sandy-silver iridescence with a crescent of bold reddish-russet along the upper obverse border. The 1948-D is even rarer than the 1948 in certified MS-67 FBL. Rick Tomaska (2023) observes that all known examples are toned, as here. This half dollar is highly recommended for inclusion in a top-flight Franklin half dollar collection on the PCGS Set Registry.
