Proof Barber Half Dollars
1915 50C PR67+ PCGS. CAC. Iridescent toning in shades of blue, green, yellow, orange, rose, and violet embraces immaculately preserved surfaces, but the patina does not minimize the field reflectivity. The resulting eye appeal, affirmed by the CAC endorsement, is immediately apparent. Essentially unmarked. The 1915 Barber half is among the most challenging series issues in business-strike format. Only 138,000 pieces were minted, and they are conditionally rare at the Gem grade level. As such, many collectors opt for high-end proof representatives instead. Although just 450 proofs were struck, examples can be found through Premium Gem condition. Superb Gems such as this piece seldom appear at auction, and few can match the eye appeal of the proof offered here. Population: 11 in 67 (4 in 67+), 0 finer. CAC: 13 in 67, 1 finer (6/17).
