1971 50 cents BU (MS-62)

Description: 1971 50 cents BU (MS-62)

This 1971 Canadian 50-cent coin, graded BU (MS-62) , is an uncirculated specimen. Struck in pure nickel, it features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II on its obverse and the coat of arms of Canada on its reverse.

The MS-62 (Mint State) grade indicates that the coin is uncirculated, but exhibits more and more visible contact marks and scratches than higher grades. Its mint luster may be somewhat diminished. This coin is generally sought after by novice collectors or those completing a collection who are not concerned with perfection, preferring an uncirculated coin at a lower cost.
