- Scarce Near-Mint 1904-S Half Dollar 1904-S Barber Half Dollar. AU-58 (PCGS). A desirable Choice AU survivor with speckled gold and bronze toning on each side. This patina is illuminated by satiny mint luster glowing from beneath. The strike is bold to sharp throughout and far better executed than that seen in the typical mintmarked half dollar of this type. Smooth and without notable abrasions, showing just faint friction across the high points on the obverse. In a series replete with scarce and conditionally challenging issues, the 1904-S stands out due to a limited mintage of 558,038 pieces. After all, any regular issue 20th century United States coin with a circulation strike mintage of fewer than 1 million coins is eagerly sought as a key date issue in its respective series. As with all San Francisco Mint Barber half dollars, the 1904-S circulated extensively with the typical survivor well worn in grades such as Good and VG. Mint State examples are rare irrespective of numeric grade, and this lovely near-Mint AU-58 (PCGS) is an incredibly significant opportunity. PCGS# 6500. NGC ID: 24MP.
