Lot Description

1896 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-65 (NGC). Dominant copper-rose patina with mottling of antique silver in isolated areas, this is an undeniably original coin with strong eye appeal. Vivid undertones of blue and pink add further appeal, as do full striking detail and carefully preserved Gem surfaces. For collectors who appreciate originally toned silver, this Gem Barber half would make a lovely addition to a Proof type or date set. PCGS# 6543. NGC ID: 24NY.
