- The Eliasberg-Miller 1906-S Half Dollar
Condition Census PCGS/CAC MS-67 Quality
1906-S Barber Half Dollar. MS-67 (PCGS). CAC. OGH.
We first had the privilege of offering this remarkable condition rarity in our (Bowers and Merena's) April 1997 sale of the famous Eliasberg Collection, where it was cataloged as:
"A splendid piece but with some die striation marks [as made] on the cheek (this being characteristic of certain issues, especially of 1906-S, and is specifically noted by David Lawrence) and with some die flakes on Miss Liberty's chin. Lustrous, frosty surfaces with light gold toning on obverse and reverse. A very pleasing coin from a visual and aesthetic viewpoint, certainly one of the finest remaining from this date and mint."
From a mintage of 1,740,154 pieces, only a few other survivors of which rival the Eliasberg-Miller specimen in terms of both technical quality and eye appeal.
Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. Earlier ex our (Bowers and Merena's) sale of the Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr. Collection, April 1997, lot 2109.
PCGS Population: 3; 2 finer (MS-68 finest).
PCGS# 6507. NGC ID: 24MX.
