Superb Gem Proof 1897 Barber Half Dollar
Profoundly Mirrored Fields and Frosty Devices

1897 50C PR67 NGC. CAC. The proof mintage of 731 Barber half dollars in 1897 was characterized by high technical quality and intense eye appeal. The present coin is a worthy representative of that fine mintage, with thickly frosted devices that contrast vividly with profoundly mirrored fields. The surfaces are brilliant and flawless, and the absence of a Cameo designation is a mystery. Census: 18 in 67, 6 finer (12/09).(Registry values: N4719)
