Barber Half Dollars are a type of silver coin produced by the United States Mint from 1892 to 1915, featuring designs by sculptor Charles E. Barber. The 1901 Barber Half Dollar minted in San Francisco is particularly significant among collectors due to its lower mintage compared to other years, making it more desirable. These coins are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, and they exhibit a classic design that includes a depiction of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The San Francisco mintmark "S" can often be found below the motto "In God We Trust" on the obverse side.
