- 1897 Barber Half Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS). OGH. Here is a delightful example that offers very well preserved surfaces for this underrated issue. Both sides are predominantly smooth, dusted with iridescent toning in pale sandy-silver. Equally as well produced as it is preserved, the strike is sharp to full throughout the design. The coin is semi-prooflike, with the fields appreciably mirrored and contrasting modestly with satiny devices. The 1897 numbers among the more obtainable Barber half dollars of its era in Mint State. On the other hand, David Lawrence (1991) states that this is, "Not really a common date. Definitely scarcer than the later dates, especially in F to MS." Conditionally scarce by any measure, this Gem will fit right into an advanced type or date set. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. PCGS Population: 24; 15 finer (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 6477. NGC ID: 24LY. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
