Notes:
"Barber half
collectors who began with circulated sets will be surprised at first by the
availability of the 1893-O. This issue is one of the most poorly struck
dates in the set. Finding one with strong details on the reverse shield and
eagle's right claw may be a challenge."
The finest examples graded
by PCGS are 2 MS-66's.
