Struck at the Philadelphia Mint in 1925, many of these 90% silver coins circulated well not the Great Depression years of the 1930s or were melted down, making it difficult for today’s collectors to find it high grades. But what we have here is even better — a single Stone Mountain Half Dollar graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) in Choice Uncirculated Mint State-64 MS64 condition, paired with a second Stone Mountain Half Dollar featuring the FS-101 designated variety, wherein the words “Stone Mountain” are doubled that has been graded by PCGS in Gem Uncirculated MS65 condition!
The “FS” designation comes from the book, the Cherrypickers’ Guide to Rare Die Varieties, written by Bill Fivaz and J.T. Stanton. It is considered to be the Bible of rare die varieties.
