Heritage sale 3021, lot 20223
Canada 1918 50 cents rev Heritage 3021-20223.jpg

This specimen was lot 20223 in Heritage sale 3021 (New York, January 2013), where it sold for $3,055. The catalog description[2] noted, "George V 50 Cents 1918, KM25, MS65 PCGS, a choice example with full mint brilliance and attractive tan and silvery-gray patina. Highly elusive in this certified grade." This type was struck 1912-19 and was superseded by KM25a, struck 1920-36, which was only 0.800 fine silver. This is a common date of the type but is scarce in high grade.

Recorded mintage: 754,989.

Specification: 11.62 g, 0.925 fine silver, .345 troy oz ASW, reeded edge, designed by E. B. MacKennal.

Catalog reference: KM 25.
