Here’s a quite affordable specimen of a Carson City half dollar to add to your collection. Its mintage of 1,420,000 is substantial for a Carson City issue. If you don’t have any coins with the famous “CC” mintmark, well, this may be the perfect one to acquire!
Writes NGC Coin Explorer, “This was a relatively generous mintage of half dollars for the Carson City Mint, second only to its production the previous year. Examples are common in all circulated grades and only moderately scarce in Mint State. These coins were also well made, with good strikes and only light signs of overused dies.” PCGS has graded 40 as XF40 with 350 finer.
