1953 Franklin Half Dollar PCGS PF68 DCAM
Out of the entire mintage of 128,800 Franklin Half Dollars struck in Proof during 1953, only 105 of the coins have been given DCAM or UCAM designations. With so few DCAM and UCAM examples, the 1953 is one of the most difficult Franklins to find with incredible Cameo contrast. This is primarily due to the fact that the Mint struck coins for this year using already worn dies. This specific 1953 Franklin Half Dollar is graded Proof 68 with a DCAM designation, making it one of three finest known examples for the issue. This stunning 1953 Proof Franklin graded PF68 DCAM by PCGS was placed with a satisfied customer by Rare Collectibles TV’s Private Advisory Coin Team.
