1904-O 50C MS65 NGC
<B>1904-O 50C MS65 NGC.</B></I> The 1904-O Barber half is among the most difficult issues in the entire series in Mint State, and it is difficult to imagine a finer specimen than the present example. In point of fact, it appears that NGC has difficulty envisioning a finer piece as well, as it has certified only a single piece in higher grade!<BR> This wonderful silver-white piece demonstrates radiant cartwheel luster over untoned surfaces. The strike is particularly bold and pleasing for an O-mint product, with trivial softness on the upper right shield corner but bold articulation elsewhere. There are no singular abrasions noted. For the collector working on the finest Barber half dollar set, this might be an essential acquisition. Census: 4 in 65, 1 finer (1/08).<BR><I>From The Southwest Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Charles E.
