Lot Description

1902 Barber Half Dollar. MS-65 (NGC). CAC. OH. Strike definition is as strong as can be expected, with unusually sharp detail on the stars, curls and talons. Bright mint frost emerges from beneath a peripheral display of reddish-golden patina. Barber half dollar output at the Philadelphia Mint nearly reached 5 million coins in 1902. Nevertheless, Gems such as this coin are unquestionable condition rarities. NGC Census: 9; 6 finer (MS-67 finest). PCGS# 6492. NGC ID: 24MF. Click here for certification details from NGC.
