1916 NGC MS-65. 1916 NGC MS-65.
Lot Title: 1916 NGC MS-65.

Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
730The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$1,250.00
1916 PCGS MS-64+.
Another puzzling "plus graded" coin, there is no obvious reason not to simply assign an MS-65 grade, as the gem look is all there, comprised of fabulous royal satin luster, gleaming white brilliance,...
731The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$1,305.00
1916 PCGS MS-65.
Spectacular in terms of premier original quality, the obverse has the exact same desirable "look" that is often seen on mint-set silver pieces, with pewter-beige patina bordered by pleasing...
858The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$300.00
1916 Walking Liberty half-dollar, plus a 1952-D Franklin half-dollar,...
Mike Wrinkle Collection. Identical patina and color belies differing types in this pairing of half-dollars. 1916 has been graded only MS-61 despite fine luster and an exceedingly sharp strike, while...
859The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$2,600.00
1916 NGC MS-66.
Off-white overall, with eggshell patina that gathers a bit of intensity toward the right side of the obverse. Liberty's hand displays remarkable precision in terms of detail, with forefinger fully...
592The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$975.00
1916 MS-63.
Luster shows particularly well in the obverse left field, and should the entire coin prove to be as lustrous under the patina, this ought to be quite a catch for the high bidder. Deeper peach-bronze...
520The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$500.00
1916 MS-63.
Moderately dense sulfuric patina is not necessarily the most attractive in the world, but seems to be fully original, and at least there is no question that this 1916 half-dollar has never been...
611The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$300.00
1916 MS-60.
Here is a strictly original and uncirculated type coin for the Walking Liberty half-dollar series, fully draped in vintage surface patina, and endowed with considerable luster. Indeed, higher grade...
612The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$1,400.00
1916 NGC MS-65.
Little tone affects the glowing, satin-laden obverse, while the reverse displays an adequate supply of pale golden iridescence, gently ceding to greyish-tan accents on the far right side. Suitably...
506The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$825.00
1916,1917 (x2) and 1917-D (obv) Walking Liberty half-dollars.
Though not matched up for appearance, this quartet of early Walking Liberty half-dollars satisfies acquisition of several difficult issues with a single purchase. These coins are cataloged as follows:...
590The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$240.00
1916 Walking Liberty half-dollar with PVC
Despite uncirculated details and some underlying mint luster, the surfaces of this coin appear to be modestly contaminated with PVC. The surface quality is difficult to ascertain, but the strike...
650The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$210.00
1916 AU-58.
This first year of issue from the Philadelphia Mint displays just a hint of wear. The crimson and blue tones appear to be original, but it may be debatable. Its design elements are bold.
1136The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$1,050.00
1916 NGC MS-65.
Glowing luster jumps from the softly toned surfaces. Typically struck, hardly any marks, and fully original.
1475The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$230.00
1916 P, D, & S Set.
The 1916 grades VF, the 1916-D grades F, and the 1916-S grades Good+. All three appear original and will fill those annoying holes in someone's set that are often difficult to fill.
613The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$675.00
Short Set of Walking Liberty Half Dollars.
The owner of this set obviously took special care to find coins for this set that matched. They are all average circulated coins, with a few of the later dates grading Fine+. The obverse mint mark...
614The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$775.00
Complete Set of Circulated Walking Liberty Half Dollars.
Every hole in this set is filled. Unfortunately, a lot of the earlier dates have been cleaned. The good news is that most of them are retoning nicely. The 1938-D has XF detail, but it too has...
