1900-O Barber Half Dollar, MS66
Sole Finest at NGC
Strong Condition Census Example

1900-O 50C MS66 NGC. Mint State examples of the 1900-O Barber half dollar are scarce in any grade, and most reside in the MS62 to MS64 range. Finer examples are decidedly rare. This coin is within the Condition Census and is the sole finest in an NGC holder (6/23). The remainder of the Census is composed of three MS66 PCGS coins, plus a lone MS67 PCGS (formerly in an NGC MS67 holder). This is the first time we have handled the lone MS66 NGC coin. It shares some similarities with its peers, including a hint of field reflectivity on the obverse, although its brilliant surfaces set it apart from the PCGS examples. The coin is satiny and well struck, particularly on the eagle's talons, with just slight weakness on the right (facing) shield corner. No distinctive abrasions are seen. Census: 1 in 66, 0 finer (5/23).(Registry values: N7079)
