Lot Description
Untoned apart from faint champagne-gold iridescence, and then again only really on the reverse, this glittering specimen allows full appreciation of a strongly reflective finish. It is fully struck, expertly preserved, and simply a delight to behold. An often overlooked issue in the Proof Barber half dollar series, the 1909 has a mintage of 650 coins and is not all that challenging to locate in grades up to and including Proof-64. Any finer, however, and the conditionally challenging nature of this issue comes readily to the fore.
