1914 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-67 (NGC). CAC. Exceptional quality and eye appeal for this key date entry from the final years of Barber half dollar coinage. Both sides border on pristine, the surfaces silky smooth in appearance beneath an overlay of delicate pearl-gray iridescence. Blushes of warmer lilac, powder blue and olive-russet patina are also evident as the coin dips into a light. Fully struck, as befits the method of manufacture, with a uniformly mirrored finish from the dies. With only 380 coins produced, the 1914 has the lowest Proof mintage in the Barber half dollar series. High quality Proofs such as this have increased desirability to advanced collectors given the low mintage of the Philadelphia Mint's circulation strike half dollar issue of the year (just 124,230 coins struck). This is one of the finest specimens known to NGC in the non-CAM/UCAM category, the coveted CAC sticker providing additional appeal for the discerning numismatist. A lovely coin and remarkable condition rarity that is sure to see spirited bidding at auction. Provenance: From the Kohler Wisconsin Collection. NGC Census: 12; 2 finer in this category (Proof-68 finest). CAC Population: 11; 0. PCGS# 6561. NGC ID: 24PJ. Click here for certification details from NGC.
