1892 USA Half Dollar EF-AU (EF-45)

The Barber half dollar was minted from 1892 to 1915 and is named after its designer, Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber. Featuring a classical Liberty head on the obverse and a heraldic eagle on the reverse, the design was shared across the dime, quarter, and half dollar of the era. Struck in 90% silver, the Barber half was widely used in everyday commerce during a period of rapid American growth and change. Though initially criticized for its conservative design, the series is now appreciated by collectors.

Obverse: The bust of Liberty facing right, with the motto above, 13 stars representing the original 13 colonies around, and the date below.
Reverse: Heraldic eagle with 13 stars above, the denomination below, and the country name above.
