- Superb Gem Proof 1892 Half Dollar 1892 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-67 (NGC). CAC. A breathtakingly beautiful specimen, both sides exhibit a pronounced cameo finish from the dies that goes unmentioned on the old style NGC insert. The devices are not only heavily frosted, but they possess razor sharp striking detail over even the most intricate features. Deeply mirrored in the fields, with enchanting golden-copper and powder blue peripheral toning around brilliant centers. The highest mintage Proof Barber half dollar, the first year 1892 was produced to the extent of 1,245 pieces to meet particularly strong contemporary demand that the Mint anticipated in connection with the launching of the new dime, quarter and half dollar designs that year. A favorite with type collectors for decades, the Proof 1892 is readily obtainable in lower grades but scarce to rare above the Choice level. This premium quality Superb Gem, deeply cameoed in finish to boot, is sure to sell for an exceptionally strong bid. NGC Census: 15; 2 finer in this category (both Proof-68). PCGS# 6539. NGC ID: 24NU.
