Description

# 1921 Pilgrim Commemorative Half Dollar. ## PCGS MS-67 - A Pristine Numismatic Treasure. This exceptional 1921 Pilgrim Commemorative Half Dollar represents a pinnacle of condition and historical significance in the silver commemorative series. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a low mintage of just 20,053 pieces, this coin is a remarkable survivor from a pivotal moment in American numismatic history. Designed by the renowned Cyrus E. Dallin, this *90% silver* half dollar showcases exquisite craftsmanship typical of early 20th-century commemorative coinage. The PCGS MS-67 grade places this specimen among the finest known examples, with only 13 coins graded higher out of a total population of just 70 coins. Its exceptional preservation reveals frosty luster and minimal marks, consistent with the series' typical striking quality. The 1921 Pilgrim issue is particularly noteworthy for its limited distribution, likely influenced by the economic recession of that year. Unlike its 1920 predecessor, this coin was primarily targeted at collectors, making high-grade examples like this extraordinarily desirable. With its pristine surfaces, outstanding eye appeal, and historical significance, this coin represents an exceptional opportunity for the discerning commemorative half dollar collector.
