Gem 1900-S Half Dollar
Turn-of-the-Century Condition Rarity

1900-S 50C MS65 PCGS. CAC. The 1900-S is a conditional rarity within the Barber half dollar series. David Akers has called it "one of the unheralded rarities of the Barber half dollar series." This Gem is surpassed by few examples at either service, either numerically or aesthetically. The center obverse alternates pastel blue and pink, with dollops of sunset-orange decorating some of the areas outside the stars. The reverse is more subtly toned with the same palette. Far better-defined that usual and an excellent coin all-around. Population: 7 in 65, 4 finer (12/12).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24MB, PCGS# 6488, Greysheet# 6595)

Weight: 12.50 grams
