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,... |

1916 PCGS MS-65.

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... |

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... |

592 | The 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... |

520 | The 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... |

1916 MS-60.

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... |

1916 NGC MS-65.

Gorgeous frosty-metallic texture provides pearlescent mint luster and a terrific foundation for the excellent eye appeal provided by this inaugural issue. Liberty's thumb is fully outlined despite a... |

1916,1917 (x2) and 1917-D (obv) Walking Liberty half-dollars.

1916 Walking Liberty half-dollar with PVC
|

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. |

1916 NGC MS-65.

Glowing luster jumps from the softly toned surfaces. Typically struck, hardly any marks, and fully original. |

Short Set of Walking Liberty Half Dollars.

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... |
