Lot Description

1897 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-63 (PCGS). An untoned silver-white specimen with full striking detail and a highly reflective finish in the fields. The devices exhibit a soft satin texture, and there is nearly enough contrast to support a Cameo designation. Proof half dollar production in the United States Mint remained steady in 1897, the mintage of 731 coins comparable to those achieved for the preceding five issues in the Barber series.
