50 Cents. 1904. ICCS graded Gem Uncirculated-65. Being the second scarcest date from the Edward VII series, with a mintage of only 60,000 pieces, the 1904 50 cent is naturally astonishingly rare in gem mint state, with only two examples certified MS-65 by ICCS, and just one other graded by PCGS which sold in the Canadiana collection in 2010.

This marvellously preserved example sports a silvery-grey patina, accented by hints of russet and blue-green along the rims. The considerable mint lustre complements the sharply struck design details, lending especially strong eye appeal to the obverse. Close inspection with a 10x loupe is required to discern the few minor traces of contact. A superb rarity unlikely to be surpassed in the near future and a resplendent addition to an advanced collection.
