What is a 1897-P Barber Half Dollar?
The 1897-P Proof Barber Half Dollar is a silver coin that was minted at the Philadelphia mint. It has a legal tender value of $0.50. As a "Proof" coin, it was produced in a limited quantity, which makes it likely less available than "business strike" or "mint strike" coins which are intended for circulation. With such a low mintage of only 731, there are likely few of these items available for purchase or at auction in a year. This coin contains a good amount of silver at 11.24887 grams (0.36 oz. Adjusted Silver Weight).
