The PCGS TrueView speaks for itself ...  MS65 PCGS. While I have for the most part stuck with my half dollar collections, this one I just had to have after I saw it. Best Regards,  George

Any coin with a color range toning like this one is unstable. They should be protected in an airtight capsule.

George those are Canadian banking institutions that made up sets of coins in the Centennial year to give out to new and special customers. The high content of sulphur in the packaging resulted in spectacular colours similar to the RCM issued 1971 through 1973 cased silver dollar coins. Hope this helps Jack

Hope this helps Jack Oh yes that is very helpful, I wondered why I had not seen an example with this kind of toning nearly as often as the 1971-73 silver dollars. Once in a while you seen a nicely toned MS 1967 quarter [I am still looking to replace one I should have kept], but seems like the halves and dollars with neat toning are tough in high grade. Thanks Jack! Thanks and hi to Jacob! Best Regards,
