1897-S 50c PCGS MS62

DLRC #: 224205 // PCGS #: 6479

A beautiful coin with the luster and eye appeal of an MS64. In fact we grade the reverse MS65+. The obverse has a few wispy lines over Liberty's cheek or this coin would be a gem!!! You will never find a better looking MS62 (or 63!) Barber half. Not to mention the 1897-S is one of our favorite dates in the series with very few mint state examples graded.
