Modern Commemorative Half Dollars, Proof (1982-present) All-Time Finest List

Number of
Required Items

Current Finest
Possible Set Rating

71.000

This series features a new way to collect commemorative half dollars-in Proof! The golden age of commems (1892-1954) included only a few Proof coins, and those are extremely rare. Suddenly, there were nearly five million Proofs from the first issue of modern commems alone (1982). Examples with heavy cameo contrast and superb surfaces are becoming quite popular.

Notes: This set has deductions. Please see the Set Composition for a listing.
