A semi-key date with a modest mintage of just 604,000 pieces. Examples in Mint State are elusive, and this near-Gem offers strong appeal to advanced Barber collectors. This coin displays satiny luster across both sides, with even, natural silver-gray coloration accented by faint champagne tones. Liberty’s portrait is boldly struck, with sharp detail in the laurel leaves, headband, and hairlines. The reverse eagle shows full feather definition and crisp shield lines. Surface preservation is excellent for the grade, with only light, scattered ticks that fall well short of detracting from the overall eye appeal.
