  • Description:

    The 90% Silver Bag Good or Better Barber Halves contains 100 half dollars in at least good condition, if not better. Collectors expect good condition to contain an extreme amount of wear, with major details lacking altogether. The Barber Halves are a part of the Barber series that took over the dime, quarter, and half dollar from 1892-1916. The Philadelphia Mint is the main branch of the US Mint and is the oldest mint in the US, being established in 1792. The Barber Half Dollar series has also interested investors, through the years, due to their 90% silver content.

    Every major coin collection, throughout history, had some version of a rocky start. The Barber Half Dollar replaced the Seated Liberty coinage, `by preference of the Mint Director, Edward Leech. After a failed attempt to offer a friendly competition among local artists, Leech resorted to Chief Engraver, William Barber, to come up with the design. Barber's design extended to the dime, quarter, and half dollar; being one of the only coin designs to serve on all currency. Liberty is wearing a Grecian leaf cap, on the obverse, as the reverse features the nation's seal. The Barber Dime is the only Barber coin to not showcase the heraldic eagle, holding the shield, on its reverse. The dime and quarter feature just the coin's monetary denomination.
