1933-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar (50c)

Silky, satiny luster rolls evenly across pleasing champagne-gold surfaces, with just a whisper of peripheral warmth. The fields are impressively clean for the issue, with only a few trivial ticks seen under a hard light. Strike shows some typical softness at the centers, yet the devices remain bold enough to pop in hand, aided by that fresh cartwheel. Eye appeal is strong and wonderfully original. Housed in a modern PCGS Gold Shield holder, and PCGS absolutely nailed the Choice Gem grade here.
