1892-O Barber Half Dollar, MS66
First-Year, Low-Mintage Key

1892-O 50C MS66 PCGS. The Barber design was introduced in 1892 and the New Orleans Mint struck a small production total of 390,000 half dollars with the new design. Two major die varieties exist for the 1892-O, one with a normal mintmark and the famous Micro-O type, with a much smaller mintmark. This coin represents the normal mintmark variety, which is not as elusive as the Micro-O, but is still a key date in the series, especially in high grade.

This delightful Premium Gem displays well-preserved, lustrous surfaces, with vibrant mint luster and some hints of lavender-gray toning. The design elements are well-detailed, with just a touch of the usual softness on the shield point and arrow fletching. The completely original surfaces are most attractive. Population: 4 in 66, 2 finer (9/15).(Registry values: N4719)
