My wife is a compulsive contest entrant / winner. She is not a numismatist by any stretch of the imagination but yet she has won more coin show door prizes than I can count. One of her most recent wins is this PCGS slab MS69 Baseball Hall of Fame half dollar with the signature of the coin�s designer. I have seen similar coins with ball player signatures graded MS70 and sometimes labeled First Strike and with specific coin show names but nothing like this designer�s version. Any ideas as to what this one is worth and were I can find it listed? Thanks, Fred

This label with the designer's signature is one of the more common varieties (there are a *lot*) with a population of 100, only 6 of them MS70. Most other varieties are in the single- or low double-digits; the rest number into the hundreds or thousands.

The full list of labels and their populations are here. The PCGS price guide for yours is shown as $150 but theirs is always high. They have only two recent sales from Heritage in 2015, for $46 and $30.

That coin appears to have some toning... no?

Not that it takes away from value, just hoping my eyes aren't getting any worse.

I like it. Gives it a "game-used" feel.
