The 1911 Half Dollar is not the most common date in the series, but it is readily available in most grades. PCGS alone has certified over 100 MS64's and over four dozen MS65's. Even MS66's are available (for a price, of course) but, surprsingly, PCGS has graded no MS67's of this date. Because so many nice examples exist today, collectors can be choosy and pick examples with full strikes and strong eye appeal.

This is not a rare issue at all, but rather a fairly common one in all mint state grades, including Gem condition, something that cannot be said for very many Barber Half Dollar issues.

Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
