1914 Barber Half Dollar. Proof-67+ (PCGS). CAC.Exceptional quality and eye appeal for this key date entry from the final years of Barber half dollar coinage. Both sides border on pristine, the surfaces silky smooth in appearance beneath an overlay of delicate pearl gray iridescence. Blushes of warmer olive-russet patina are also evident around the peripheries, further enhancing this coins already memorable appearance. Fully struck, as befits the method of manufacture, with a uniformly mirrored finish from the dies. With only 380 coins produced, the 1914 has the lowest Proof mintage in the Barber half dollar series.
