- 1892 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-66 (PCGS). Exceptional beauty for the blue and russet-gray toning that encircles the obverse and reverse, with the centers showing satiny silver-gray. As 1892 unfolded the long running Seated Liberty coinage was finally replaced with this new design by Charles E. Barber, Engraver at the Mint on not only the half dollar, but the quarter and dime as well, continuing with the uniform design for silver coinage fractional denominations. No surface problems of any consequence, although minor mint roller lines are present on Liberty's cheek, imparted during the planchet preparation process when the silver bullion was rolled to the correct thickness for the denomination. Mintage of 1,245 pieces and this desirable Gem should please any specialist.
