1906-D Barber Half Dollar - Fine
Add a classic Denver Mint silver coin to your collection with this 1906-D Barber Half Dollar in Fine (F) condition. Struck from 90% silver and 10% copper, this issue carries special historical appeal as the first Denver Mint Barber Half Dollar, produced during the Denver facility’s inaugural year of coinage operations.
Designed by Charles E. Barber, Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, the obverse features a right-facing portrait of Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap and laurel wreath, with the date 1906 below. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with a shield on its chest, clutching arrows and an olive branch beneath the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The “D” mintmark beneath the eagle identifies this coin as having been struck at the Denver Mint.
In Fine (F) condition, this coin exhibits moderate circulation wear while retaining clearly recognizable design elements. Liberty's portrait, portions of the headband and wreath, date, reverse eagle, denomination, mintmark, and surrounding lettering remain well defined for the grade.
With its first-year Denver Mint connection, 90% silver composition, and classic Barber design, the 1906-D Barber Half Dollar makes an excellent addition to a Barber date-and-mint collection, U.S. type set, or collection of historic American silver coinage.
