Lot Title: 1940-S PCGS MS-66.
Description: This sparkling white, fully brilliant specimen has frosty design motifs. Some microscopic ticks and a slight abrasion on the sun are noted for accuracy, but this coin is so attractive that grading it any lower than MS-66 would be a crime. Though this issue is notorious for being weakly struck, this example shows strong details.

1940-S PCGS MS-65.
The striking difficulties experienced with half-dollars by the San Francisco mint during this era are well documented, but the present 1940-S is actually very decently struck. White, with satiny mint...

638The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$305.00
1940-S PCGS MS-65.
There is hardly a mark to be found on the surfaces of this pleasing Walker. A light milky haze is visible on the obverse, but this does nothing less than flaunt the coin's originality.
