1919-C Newfoundland Silver 50 Cents George V VG
This silver fifty-cent piece from 1919 offers a fascinating glimpse into the numismatic history of Newfoundland. Struck with a silver content of 0.3503 troy ounces, this coin belongs to an era when the island operated its own independent currency system before joining the Canadian confederation. With a total mintage of 306,267, each surviving specimen represents a distinct moment in early twentieth-century commerce. The obverse of the coin features the left-facing, crowned portrait of King George V, surrounded by Latin inscriptions. On the reverse, the denomination of 50 Cents and the 1919 date are clearly displayed, framed elegantly within an ornate, decorative circle. Cataloged as KM-12, this piece is preserved in Very Good condition, showing honest wear that speaks to its years in active circulation.
