1900 Barber Half, Toned MS66
Shimmering Luster

1900 50C MS66 PCGS. CAC. While readily available in all Mint State grades up to MS65, the 1900 half is very scarce in Premium Gem condition and rare any finer. The 4.7 million-piece mintage failed to yield many outstanding examples, and the population in high grades seldom shows appreciable change. This wonderfully toned example displays 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: 14 in 66 (1 in 66+), 2 finer (11/15).
