Description

1906-S Barber Half Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS). CAC.
Dusted with soft pearl-gray and iridescent copper-apricot toning, this delightful Gem also sports full satin luster and razor sharp striking detail. Writing in the second edition of his Guide Book of Barber Silver Coins authored for Whitman, Q. David Bowers offers the accurate, if brief comment that the 1906-S in Gem Mint State is "another 20th-century in this grade." Indeed, from a mintage of 1,740,154 pieces only a handful of other survivors rival the Abigail specimen in terms of both technical quality and eye appeal.
PCGS# 6507. NGC ID: 24MX.
PCGS Population: 15; 11 finer (MS-68+ finest). CAC Population: 8; 8.
From the Abigail Collection, Part III.

Estimate: $4370
