The 1952 50C Franklin Half Dollar NGC PF-67 Cameo represents a pinnacle of mid-20th-century U.S. numismatics, struck at the Philadelphia Mint as a proof coin for collectors. NGC has graded 161 as PF67CAM with 41 finer. NGC Price Guide (NGC PG) gives this issue a price of $2,650 in PF67CAM. Therefore, when you buy this coin, you will save $1,075 off the NGC PG price!
Featuring Benjamin Franklin on the obverse—designed by John R. Sinnock—and the Liberty Bell with an eagle on the reverse, it embodies the short-lived Franklin half dollar series (1948-1963). This example's PF-67 grade signifies exceptional sharpness and minimal marks, with the coveted Cameo designation highlighting dramatic contrast between frosted devices and mirrored fields.
Crafted with precision, the coin showcases bold strikes on Franklin's profile, flowing hair, and the intricate bell details, free from the common imperfections of the era. The Cameo effect, rarer in 1952 proofs, arises from specialized blasting techniques that enhance visual depth, making high-grade survivors like this one stand out in collections.
