Barber Half Dollars, minted from 1892 to 1915, are a series of coins designed by Charles E. Barber. The 1894-S Barber Half Dollar is particularly noteworthy due to its low mintage, with only 24 known specimens believed to exist, making it one of the rarest and most sought-after coins in American numismatics. This coin features Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, representative of the Barber series. The San Francisco mint mark indicates that it was produced at the San Francisco Mint, adding to its desirability among collectors.
