Description

1901-O Barber Half Dollar, MS65★
Conditionally Rare

1901-O 50C MS65★ NGC. Ex: Richmond Collection. The 1901-O half dollar is among the most difficult issues in the entire set -- fifth rarest in Mint State among regular issues, according to the Feigenbaums, behind only 1904-S, 1896-O, 1901-S, and 1904-O.

This coin shows considerable semiprooflikeness alternating with some frosty areas. There are remarkably few post-strike distractions, chiefly a few light, scattered, grade-consistent ticks. Both sides show clash marks--unusual for a Barber half dollar. The strike on the obverse is bold save for a couple of the lower stars on the right, and the reverse shows weakness on the eagle's head and neck, the right wing, shield corner, claw, and fletchings. The somewhat prooflike effect is more noticeable on the reverse, however, and it coupled with the markedly clean surfaces make this piece justly deserving of the NGC Star designation for superior eye appeal. Census: 7 in 65 (1 in 65★ ), 4 finer (7/22).
