Barber Halves are a type of silver half dollar coin minted in the United States from 1892 to 1915, featuring the designs of engraver Charles E. Barber. The 1905 Barber Half Dollar was produced at the San Francisco Mint, identified by the “S” mintmark. This coin, composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, is prized by collectors for its historical significance and intricate design, which includes Liberty’s portrait on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The 1905 San Francisco Barber Half is particularly sought after in higher grades due to its lower mintage compared to other years.
