Since there's already a winner, is the answer it was someone who cuts hair for a livings old coin?

That's what I thought it was, but I did have other ideas, so decided to google just in case, and quickly found the intended answer.

Thank you to all those who participated.
Congratulations to january1may on winning the contest.
Here is the answer that I was looking for:
As many of us know, the Barber designed coins were thus named for their designer Mr. Charles E. Barber. But Barber also was the designer of the HAWAII half dollar in 1883 making it "a Barber half dollar" just as much as the US version of said coin.
I just purchased my first Hawaiian half dollar.
