	1916	AU58	PCGS 30650086	Choice	$915	First Year Issue, Brilliant Frosted Luster, CAC Approval, Twin Lakes Collection. A nicely frosted 1916 Walking Liberty half with brilliant luster during bright light inspection. Light peripheral gold toning is noted on both sides. Essentially unabraded with a single contact mark at the obverse stem end that is well hidden. Typically struck for the 1916 issue. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) Dupont hologram holder with CAC approval.
	1916-D	MS65	PCGS 44394843	Gem	$3250	First Year Denver Design Issue, Pretty Golden-Rose Shades, Gem Original. The 1916 Philadelphia and Denver struck Walking Liberty halves have comparable rarity in the higher Mint State grades. I could not resist adding this notable gem Denver example to inventory. A well frosted example with radiant luster and the expected cartwheels given a moderate golden patina that turns to rose closer to the peripheries. If luster and superb eye appeal are your cup of tea, this new offering might warrant a closer look. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder with CAC approval.
	1921-D	VG10	PCGS 6616202015	Choice	$700	Key Date, Natural Coin Gray, Choice Surfaces. The 1921-D and 1921-S are the unquestioned key dates within the Walking Liberty half dollar series. The 1921-D sports the lowest mintage of the series and is even rare in the lower circulated grades. GFRC located this perfectly original example at the Summer Baltimore show for inventory. One can never have enough 1921-D example in inventory, right? Surfaces are toned a natural coin gray. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.
	1923-S	AU58	PCGS 42527456	Choice	$4250	Dirty Gray Patina, Frosted Luster, Choice Original, Important Grade, Twin Lakes Collection. Consignor Price Reduction. From 1923 to 1928, the San Francisco mint issued coinage for only three years; 1923-S, 1927-S, and 1928-S. The 1923-S is the better date among the three with an AU58 CAC approved example being released by Twin Lakes. This is a light gray toned example with the typical high rims and "dished" appearance. Frosted luster originates from granular textured mint bloom. Fields are pristine and pleasing. Everyman set builders should take a close look at this choice example. Priced at the CDN CAC Guide. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder.
	1939-S	MS66+	NGC 6282636002	Gem	$650	New October 23! Frosted Luster, Circular Rose-Green Toning, Gem Original, Lakeland Collection. GFRC images accurately capture the circular toning on this superb gem 1939-S half dollar. Not a scare issue with its mintage of 2,552,000 but the unique toning is captivating under a bright light. Centers are toned a light yellow gold and surrounded by rings of rose and green-gold on both sides. Strike is close to complete with fully defined thumb though a few skirt lines are not continuous at the left facing knee. A cool new offering from the Lakeland Collection. Housed in new large font NGC holder.
	1945-S	MS66+	NGC 6352247006	Gem	$450	Brilliant Frosted Luster, Peripheral Copper-Gold, Gem Original, Lakeland Collection. Brilliant frosted luster and vibrant cartwheels are promptly noted when placing this superb gem 1945-S half dollar under angled lighting. Mint frost is continuous on both side along with unabraded surfaces. Rims are sharp and without a single contact mark. Peripheral copper-gold toning is stronger on the obverse but also evident on the reverse. Center obverse strike is incomplete with missing upper skirt lines and partial thumb. Housed in new large font NGC holder.
	1945-S	MS66+	NGC 6605179002	Gem	$750	New October 23! Superb Eye Appeal, Pastel Shades, Gem Original, CAC Approval, Lakeland Collection. This superb 1945-S half presents light pastel shades that are concentrated at the obverse periphery along with brilliant frosted luster. A bright light further activates the cartwheels. GFRC images present the coloration equivalent to when this coin is resting under an LED desk lamp and viewed at an angle. I see greens and gold with a light mix of rose on the obverse. Strike is typical for the issue along with dies being notably worn with metal flow lines emerging at the centers and rims. The CDN CAC price guide jumps from $376 at MS66 to $6,560 in MS67. Please note that this offering has been awarded a (+) grade due to its premium eye appeal. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.
