    Beautiful coin, can't beat the early commemorative halves as far as design goes.
    Nice buy!

    No, I meant all 12 of them. The were minted 1951 to 1954 at all three mints.

    Even though . . . I'm still adding a few to my collection. I don't have set, but just trying to get one of each as an example.

    By the way, I'd be happy to take that pesky 1951 S MS66 off your hands. Hate the imbalance with just one being higher than all of the others. LOL

    I notice that both the Booker T and the Carver/Washington are tough to find with clean cheeks. Most of them look like the celebrants have five o'clock shadow and finding clean ones is a challenge. It's a similar challenge with Morgan and Peace dollars to find ones with clean cheeks.

    Beautiful registry set Green.

    Thanks Paul. :)
    Larry (ldhair) explained it rather well in post #24 on this thread...

    I'd often wondered why there was so much chatter on the obverse, yet the reverse is nearly pristine.
