Introduction des pièces de monnaie

Lacking the novelty of the previous year's edition, the low-mintage 1893-S half dollar is scarce across all grades. Most survivors are too worn to grade as high as Good, particularly since the reverse of early Barber Halves typically wore more readily than the obverse. Mint State survivors are quite elusive, with gems nearly unknown. There are no reported varieties for 1893-S.En savoir plus
