This Philadelphia-issue half dollar is very appealing for a circulated specimen. The obverse strike is bold, and patina veils the whole side, starting as a dusty-rose color in the center, then blending into light shades of blue, yellow, and green. The reverse also displays blush-hued surfaces, with the country’s name contrasting in a yellow-green color. On both sides, wear is evident on the high points, but nothing more than you would expect at the AU-53 level. This coin is sure to please.
