Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 10328)

The 1921 Half dollar is part of a series of Classic Commemorative coins struck from 1892-1954. The specific variety is Missouri. Struck in Philadelphia and designated as a Business (MS) strike, this coin is made of 90% silver; 10% copper from a mintage of 11,400 struck.
Marking the centennial of Missouri's admission to the Union as the 24th state in 1821, the Missouri commemorative half dollar. Two types were made, including one with the inscription 2*4, a scarcer variety proclaiming Missouri's place as the 24th state. The other type does not have this numerical feature and are referred to simply as plain Missouri halves.

Many of each type were made, but not all were sold, and a large number were melted. However, numismatic experts cannot find consensus on exactly how many were sold, though the total number of survivors is low, and both types of Missouri half dollars are very scarce. The Missouri half dollar was designed by Robert Aitken and were issued at $1 each.

About a third of known surviving specimens exhibit wear, and most Missouri half dollars are encountered in the range of AU50 to MS64. Availability drops off significantly at the MS65 level, where these pieces are quite rare. In MS66 or above they are very rare.

About CDN Prices

All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.

CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.

Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.

Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.

CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.

Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.

The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value. CDN Publishing is not responsible for typographical or database-related errors. Your use of this site indicates full acceptance of these terms.
