The Hudson half dollar is a coin wrapped in controversies -- the types that led to the demise of the entire program in the 1950s.
One story suggests that a some individual, perhaps a dealer, bought some 7,500 examples of the coin, issued for $1, at a discounted price of 95 cents each. This individual held about 75% of the coin's entire mintage while collectors, having great difficulty in locating the coin, assumed the Hudson half dollar was scarce.
