1896 Barber Half Dollar, MS65
Rarely Seen Finer

1896 50C MS65 PCGS. The 1896 Barber half dollar is not as elusive in circulated grades as its mintage of 950,000 pieces would suggest, but examples in MS65 condition are rare, and finer coins are very rare. This delightful Gem displays sharply detailed design elements and well-preserved, lustrous surfaces. The brilliant centers yield to attractive shades of greenish-gold and magenta at the peripheries. Population: 14 in 65, 6 finer (5/16).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24LV, PCGS# 6474, Greysheet# 6557)

Weight: 12.50 grams
