1941 'no AW' proof Walking Liberty half-dollar, NGC PR-66 1941 'no AW' proof Walking Liberty half-dollar, NGC PR-66
Lot Title: 1941 'no AW' proof Walking Liberty half-dollar, NGC PR-66
Description: Evidence of the excessive die polish that scoured away the "AW" monogram can be seen elsewhere, particularly at Liberty's upraised hand, where the forefinger appears as a disembodied appendage. Cameo contrast is noticeably present on both sides, with a lot of mint frost layered atop the deeply mirrored, glassy fields. A great coin for a proof type set.
Low Estimate: $600.00

688The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$700.00
Two 1941, both NGC PF-65.
Ozarks Proof Singles Estate. One slab states "NO AW", but in fact, both coins appear to be completely lacking the monogram. Interestingly, these have a similar appearance overall, with ruby-gold...
689The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$370.00
1941 NGC PF-65.
Ozarks Proof Singles Estate. Less well contrasted than competing examples, and truth be told, we would prefer to see this in a PF-64 holder. Light hairlines dart aimlessly about the fields, though...
690The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$425.00
1941 no AW, NGC PF-66.
Ozarks Proof Singles Estate. Amazingly bright, the late-state dies had practically no capacity for producing cameo effect, and indeed, so worn was the reverse die that "AW" is entirely missing. As...
743The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$380.00
1941 NGC PF-64.
In terms of lack of hairlines, the grade seems a point too low, but there is some cloudiness visible in the obverse right field. That being said, the obverse features a perceptible cameo appearance,...
744The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$775.00
1941 PCGS PF-64 (green label), and a 1942 PCGS PF-64.
A very faint layer of vanilla-silver patina evens out the character for 1941, yet certainly permits underlying brilliance to shine through. 1942 gleams with blazing silver luster, unimpeded by any...
745The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$440.00
1941 PCGS PF-66.
Some tan haze pervades the fields but does not impact technical aspirations, as the razor-sharp details and clean surfaces suffer no abrasions or spots. This is likely a strong candidate for...
610The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$825.00
1941 and 1942, both NGC PF-64.
Most bidders will perceive these as being quite nice for the NGC PF-64 grade, especially as each coin is brilliant as can be, with hints of cameo in either case. The 1941 displays some soft haze and...
611The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$425.00
1941 PCGS PF-64 (green label).
From the era when proof coins were "graded right", this 1941 proof half-dollar definitely displays better preservation than one might expect of the PF-64 level, with virtually no hairlines to be found...
612The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$310.00
1941 and 1943, both NGC MS-66+.
Exquisite surfaces for both coins exhibit amazingly clean texture, with few of the contact marks frequently found up and down Liberty's torso. Fields are almost perfectly clean in both cases, and...
612The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$425.00
1941 and 1944-D, both NGC MS-66.
1941 is a no-question, fully original VERY GEM beauty, with immaculate satin-smooth luster and surfaces that are even cleaner than expected of the grade. 1944-D is absolutely chiffon-smooth and...
551The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$525.00
1941 PCGS PF-66.
A touch of contrast augments the appearance of the obverse, while the reverse has no hint of a monogram and is fully brilliant. Crystal-clear fields are spotless and exhibit no perceptible hairlines....
509The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$230.00
Tube of AU/BU 1941 and 1942 Walking Liberty half-dollars.
Blazing half-dollars dated 1941 and 1942 make up this tube, though some must be considered "sliders".
510The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$450.00
1941 NGC PF-65.
Medium beige patina drapes the obverse from about a third of the way down, but avoids the reverse entirely, leading to a mostly brilliant proof. 1941 saw high production quality for the proof series,...
511The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$500.00
1941 NGC PF-66.
The shockingly beautiful, pristine obverse displays a considerable level of proof cameo contrast, with Liberty's torso generously layered in frosty texture that floats gracefully atop fully reflective...
512The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$475.00
1941, 1943, and 1944. NGC MS-66.
Stunning common silver-bright Walkers make up this group, all of them graded MS-66 by NGC. Dates are listed as 1941, 1943 and 1944. Start your traditional "short set" out right with shrewd...
812The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$475.00
1941 NGC PF-65.
Minimal contrast between devices and fields may be at least partially due to a tenuous veneer of beige-grey layered gently across each side. Sharply struck off of polished dies, but not fully so,...
700The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$575.00
1941 "missing initial" PCGS PF-66.
Inimitably deep clarity of brilliance provides liquid-metal appeal, and this proof looks like it could have fallen off the dies just yesterday. The designer's monogram is entirely missing from the...
701The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$575.00
1941 "missing initial" PCGS PF-66.
A second proof 1941 half-dollar, very much like the last. Exceedingly brilliant, limitlessly reflective and bright, and the designer's initial is missing. Housed in a PCGS green-label holder, graded...
525The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$550.00
1941 NGC MS-67.
Unbelievable gleaming silver fields shimmer and shine like fresh white satin, and this coin presents an astounding, truly pristine appearance under close scrutiny. Even the rarefied MS-67 grade seems...
599The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$255.00
Tube of AU/BU 1941 and 1942 Walking Liberty half-dollars
What appears at first be a tube of uncirculated common date Walkers turns out on closer inspection to actually be comprised of some AU, but mostly BU coins. The majority do seem to be uncirculated,...
627The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$370.00
1941 No "AW" PF-64.
This Proof representative was struck from the reverse die from which the designer's initials were inadvertently removed by excessive polishing. It is brilliant on fully mirrored fields. A few...
628The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$575.00
1941 No "AW" NGC PF-66.
This Proof specimen is an example of those issues struck from January to October. The die utilized was overly polished resulting in the removal of the designer's initials on the finished product. ...
672The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$140.00
1941 and 1943. MS-65.
Each piece included in this Philadelphia pairing emanates a dazzling mint brilliance. The few trivial ticks perceived on these two pieces are consistent at this grade level. Both of these prudently...
1154The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$650.00
1941 PCGS PF-66.
Wet-looking, reflective surfaces that reveal practically mark-free fields. This coin must have been an easy one for PCGS to grade because it is a no-questions-asked, problem-free super Gem.
