Description
Satiny MS66 1892-O Barber Half
Conditional Rarity, Three Graded Finer
1892-O 50C MS66 NGC. Only 390,000 1892-O Barber halves were
made, the lowest of any branch mint issue and fourth-lowest in the
series, behind the three well-known low-mintage Philadelphia issues
of 1913-15. As such, it is a conditional rarity, and the present
MS66 piece is about as nice as most collectors can ever hope to vie
for: There are precisely three pieces numerically finer between NGC
and PCGS combined. Brilliant, satiny surfaces are well but not
fully struck, with an absence of distracting marks. This piece is
tied numerically (different service) with the Duckor coin that we
handled in our ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/2010), lot 3173, which
brought $18,400. Census: 2 in 66, 1 finer (7/11).From The Oliver Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
