Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 10356)
The 1921 Pilgrim half dollar honors the 300th anniversary of the Mayflower landing in Plymouth, Massachusetts, where the pilgrims stepped foot for the first time in America. This coin, designed by Cyrus Dallin, depicts on its obverse a side-view portrait of a pilgrim, while the reverse shows a detailed rendering of the Mayflower sailing ship that brought the pilgrims across the Atlantic Ocean. The 1921 Pilgrim halves mark the second year of this type and show a small 1921 date on the left obverse field, whereas those struck in 1920 do not show a date. The tiny D seen on the coin is the initial for designer Dallin's last name and is not a D mintmark indicating that the coin was struck at the Denver Mint -- it was struck at the Philadelphia Mint.
The 1921 Pilgrim half dollars are well struck, and most are encountered in uncirculated grades, with the greatest plurality known in grade range of MS63-65. MS66s are scarce, MS67s rare, and those grading higher are extremely rare.

About CDN Prices
All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.
The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value.
