Lot Description

1915 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-65 (NGC). Otherwise toned in rich olive-copper and lighter sandy-gray shades, the surfaces reveal vivid undertones of pinkish-rose and powder blue as the coin dips into a light. Smartly impressed and wonderfully original, this key date Gem will excite advanced Proof type and date collectors alike. From a mintage of just 450 pieces, the last in the Proof Barber half dollar series and also the lowest after only the 1914 (380 coins). Provenance: From Heritage's sale of the Rev. Dr. James G. K. McClure Collection, June 2016 Long Beach Signature Auction, lot 4015; Heritage's FUN Signature Auction of January 2018, lot 3794. PCGS# 6562. NGC ID: 24PK.
