Description: Barber Half Dollar (1892–1915) The Barber Half Dollar is part of the classic Barber series designed by U.S. Mint Chief Engraver Charles Barber. Replacing the Seated Liberty Half Dollar in 1892, it was succeeded by the Walking Liberty Half Dollar in 1916. Due to its short mintage period and limited preservation, finding a Barber Half Dollar in extremely fine condition has become exceedingly rare. Design Features Obverse Lady Liberty facing right, wearing a Phrygian cap with a laurel wreath "LIBERTY" inscribed on the headband Minting date below Liberty's neck "IN GOD WE TRUST" above her head 13 stars surrounding (6 left, 7 right) Reverse Heraldic eagle with spread wings Olive branch in left claw, arrows in right Scroll with "E PLURIBUS UNUM" in eagle's beak "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "HALF DOLLAR" inscriptions 13 stars between top inscription and eagle's head Minting Information Minted in four cities: Philadelphia (no mint mark), Denver (D), San Francisco (S), and New Orleans (O). Approximately 136 million coins were struck for circulation across 73 different date and mint mark combinations.
