Scarce 1904-S Barber Half Dollar NGC MS62

From a small business-strike mintage of 533,038 pieces, the 1904-S Barber half dollar is an underrated key and one of the most challenging issues of the series in high grade. Q. David Bowers notes the population data for this issue is inflated by resubmissions and crossovers and Mint State examples are much more elusive than those figures indicate.

The NGC population is 3 with 12 graded higher.

Listed at $17,500 in the PCGS price guide.

1934 Maryland Half Dollar NGC MS68

Both sides of this virtually unmarked coin host well-defined devices. The luster is strong, if slightly diffuse; silver-green patina at the central obverse yields to the mustard-gold and yellow shadings at the borders.

The NGC population is 7 (two of which are designated “Star”) with 1 graded higher.

Listed at $13,200 in the CDN CPG and $25,000 in the NGC price guide.

Offered at $9,400

None Graded Higher – 1942 Walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS68

The 1942 Walking Liberty half dollar, struck during the midst of World War II to the extent of more than 47 million pieces, is a common coin which can be found in circulated condition in bags of 90% silver to this day. That said, this issue is far from common in this exceptional state of preservation. The NGC population is just 13 with none graded higher. This one is delicately toned and pristine in its appearance.

Listed at $19,200 in the CDN CPG and $17,000 in the NGC population report.

Offered at $9,300

Tied for Highest Graded – 1880 Seated Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS67

The years from 1879 through 1890 saw skimpy half dollar mintages at the Philadelphia Mint (and no half dollar mintages elsewhere) as the nation’s coin factories concentrated on increasing the glut of unpopular, largely unused Morgan dollars mandated by cronyism and politics (pardon the redundancy) in the form of the Bland-Allison Act of 1878. The Philadelphia Mint struck 8,400 business strikes and 1,355 proofs in 1880 . This example displays color-free surfaces and is tied with five others for the highest graded at NGC.

Flashy, Retail-Friendly 1919-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS64

While not quite as rare in high grades as its Denver Mint counterpart, the 1919-S remains a popular and challenging issue in Uncirculated condition. That is especially true at the MS64 grade level, where the issue becomes genuinely scarce. This particular example is bright and color-free, with strong eye-appeal. The NGC population is 48 with 32 graded higher. Listed at $13,800 in the CDN CPG and $13,000 in the NGC price guide.

Offered at $13,450
