Description du lot

1899-S Barber Half Dollar. MS-63 (NGC). Lightly toned in champagne-gold iridescence, this handsome half dollar also offers razor sharp striking detail and full mint luster in a soft satin texture. This is a scarce to rare issue in all Mint State grades, as most of the 1,686,411 coins that the San Francisco Mint produced in 1899 saw extensive circulation. A find for the advanced collector specializing in Barber coinage. Provenance: From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection. Earlier from Hollinbeck-Kagin's 271st Mail Sale, June 1967, lot 1588. NGC Census: 11; 29 finer (MS-67 finest). PCGS# 6485. NGC ID: 24M8. Click here for certification details from NGC.
