1900 Barber Half, Toned MS66
Shimmering Luster, Ex: Friend

1900 50C MS66 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Friend. This Premium Gem 1900 Barber half features incredible deep blue and sea-green toning on the obverse complementing gold, cobalt, and violet on the reverse. The coin is boldly struck and exhibits frosty underlying luster with seemingly pristine surfaces.

Population Data (4/15): PCGS records eight grading events for this date in MS66 (one in MS66+) and two MS67 finer. NGC shows seven MS66 and one MS67 finer.

Heritage Commentary: The 1900 Barber half dollar is one of the common dates in the series, from a mintage approaching 5 million coins. Circulated pieces and Mint State coins through the Gem grade are rather plentiful, although above MS65 the issue is a major condition rarity.
