1950 HALFCROWN ( PROOF )

This 1950 Halfcrown Proof represents an exceptional numismatic specimen from the reign of King George VI, struck using specialised proof techniques at the Royal Mint. Proof coins exhibit mirror fields with frosted design elements, demonstrating superior craftsmanship and finish compared to circulation strikes. The 1950 date holds particular significance, marking the final full year of George VI's reign before Queen Elizabeth II's accession in 1952. Proof examples from this period are notably scarce, as limited quantities were produced for collectors and presentation purposes. This specimen exemplifies the refined artistry and technical excellence characteristic of Royal Mint proof production. An outstanding acquisition for serious collectors pursuing comprehensive proof collections or those documenting the concluding years of George VI's coinage.
