  • Description:

    The Denver Mint was established in 1906, participating in the Barber Half Dollar series that same year. The Denver Mint is known for its production of mint sets and commemorative coins. It also holds the leading spot for being the single largest producer of coins in the world. The Denver Mint uses the "D" mint-mark to indicate where the coins were minted.

    The 1906-D Barber Half Dollar was minted at the Denver Mint and is in very fine condition. Collectors expect very fine condition to contain some amount of wear, but specific details and date are still quite sharp. There were ample amounts of 1906-D Half Dollars minted, resulting in an easy win for collectors. 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.
