1915 Barber Half Dollar Fine-12 PCGS
The 1915 Barber Half Dollar represents a fascinating moment in United States coinage, coming from the final years of a celebrated design series. Struck in 90 percent silver with a precious metal content of 0.3575 troy ounces, this fifty-cent piece is a survivor of a remarkably small production run. The Philadelphia Mint produced a mere 138,000 of these half dollars in 1915, making it one of the scarcer issues in the entire Barber run. This specific coin has been certified in Fine 12 condition, showing the honest wear of a piece that actively circulated in commerce during the early twentieth century. Because it was minted in Philadelphia, it bears no mint mark. The obverse displays the classic Liberty head wearing a laurel wreath and a crown, accompanied by the date 1915 and the motto "IN GOD WE TRUST". The reverse features a heraldic eagle clutching an olive branch and arrows, surrounded by the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "E PLURIBUS UNUM", and the denomination "HALF DOLLAR".
