- 1899 Barber Half Dollar. MS-66 (PCGS).
Blushes of vivid reddish-rose iridescence hug the peripheries and frame brilliant centers on both sides of this captivating premium Gem. Fully struck with pin point detail to even the most intricate design elements, billowy mint frost and silky smooth surfaces further enhance already memorable eye appeal. At 5,538,000 coins produced, the 1899 boasts one of the highest mintages in the circulation strike Barber half dollar series of 1892 to 1915. Perhaps not surprisingly, this is a common and popular type issue in most grades. Commercial use was heavy, however, as it was for all Barber half dollar issues, the typical 1899 half dollar in numismatic circles well worn and confined to the Good to Fine grade range. Mint State survivors are scarce in an absolute sense, with most owing their existence to contemporary dealers who set aside a small number of original rolls (which have long since been dispersed into the market). Among the finest certified by PCGS, and exceptionally attractive even at the MS-66 grade level, this pristine-looking beauty is sure to sell for a strong premium.
PCGS Population: 10; 5 finer (MS-67+ finest).
