1906-O Barber Half Dollar Good
Struck in 90% silver at the legendary New Orleans Mint, this 1906 half dollar carries the distinctive 'O' mint mark, representing a bygone era of American coinage. The coin contains 0.3575 troy ounces of precious metal and displays the honest wear of a piece that circulated heavily in daily commerce, currently graded in Good condition. The obverse presents the profile of Lady Liberty, envisioned by designer Charles Barber. She wears a traditional Phrygian cap adorned with a laurel wreath, a classic symbol of freedom and victory. Above her head, the national motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' remains legible, framing the date of 1906 at the bottom. On the reverse, a heraldic eagle stretches its wings wide, protecting a shield across its chest. In its beak, the eagle holds a decorative banner, while its talons grasp an olive branch of peace and a cluster of arrows representing strength. The surrounding inscription identifies the country of origin and the denomination as 'HALF DOLLAR'.
