Ron Guth

The 1962 Half Dollar is common in all grades, including Mint State. However, it is one of the scarcer dates with Full Bell Lines on the reverse. In fact, only the 1952-S, the ultra-rare 1953-S, and the 1963 have lower populations at PCGS. No 1962 Half Dollar (Non-FBL or FBL) has been graded higher than MS-66 by PCGS.

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
