Surprise Condition Rarity
1907-S Barber Half Dollar. MS-64 (PCGS).
Handsome, fully original surfaces are toned in a warm blend of sandy-gold, pewter-gray and powder blue. Uncommonly smooth even at the Choice Mint State level, a bit of muting to the luster is all that seems to preclude a Gem assessment. Well struck overall with most features fully rendered and crisp. Among Barber half dollar specialists the 1907-S has long been known as a formidable condition rarity. Although the mintage isn't high, it is not low either - 1,250,000 pieces. Apparently this issue was virtually completely overlooked at the time it was released, and, today, the term rarity could be applied to a piece even at the AU level. David Lawrence (1991) says that the 1907-S "is the scarcest late date of the series in MS." The present offering is worthy of serious consideration.
