1902 Barber 50C PCGS PF66 Ex. Friend
<b>1902 Barber Half Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 66.</b> Seven-seven-seven is your lucky number with this deep, iridescent toned Proof 1902 half dollar. That is its mintage -- 777 -- and, as we can see, it comes next in a long line of near-pristine to superlative quality Barber half dollars in the Dale Friend set of Proofs. The colors, deep and glowing, are of course, all natural, the result of many years&#39; residence in an original Mint-supplied tissue wrapper. Struck with controlled precision throughout the outer peripheral areas, the coin does, however, reveal somewhat weak and compromised detail &#40;from insufficient die pressure?&#41; at the central locations. This is most evident in the features above Liberty&#39;s ear as well as the corner of the shield on the reverse. There is no reason why bidders shouldn&#39;t have an excellent time here; the coin is gorgeous! <b>&#40;PCGS # 6549&#41;</b> <i>
