Lot Description

Another half-dollar that dodged its obligation to enter commerce.  Worn dies were no excuse for early retirement but explain why the coin was not graded mint state.  Note the drawn stars and shallow rims.  The toning is a tad uneven around the left wing and a hairline lies just above.  Est. $750 to $900.
