1914 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-67+ (PCGS). CAC.This is a simply beautiful Proof Barber half dollar toned in iridescent pearl gray, pinkish-silver, powder blue, lilac and champagne-apricot. The reverse is the more boldly and evenly patinated of the two sides, although both are equally attractive. Appreciably mirrored in finish with a razor sharp strike and virtually pristine surfaces. With only 380 coins produced, the 1914 has the lowest Proof mintage in the Barber half dollar series. High quality Proofs such as this have increased desirability to advanced collectors given the low mintage of the Philadelphia Mints circulation strike half dollar issue of the year (just 124,230 coins struck). This is one of the finest specimens known to PCGS in the non-CAM/DCAM category and, according to the PCGS CoinFacts website, there are no auction sales for the 1914 half dollar in Proof-67+. A lovely coin and remarkable condition rarity that is sure to see spirited bidding at auction.The primary plate coin in its category on the PCGS CoinFacts website.
