I'd say that's a nicer than normal Barber half from circulation. Glad to see you pulled your first one, congrats!

Somehow finding a Barber in the wild is a bigger trophy than a Ben, WL, or a 64. Congrats on your catch.

Nice even wear on that coin, most found look worse than that. Congrats!

unfortunately I cant do the weighing thing, my bank would make me unwrap the coins and run them through the machine, they wont take a ton of rolled coins

that coin is SO freakin awesome though, my oldest so far is a 1927 walker.... :laughing7::laughing7:

be aware the weight test is just a preliminary process to see if I could have any silvers. all coins get a loupe check for errors etc.

no edge checking allowed that's not how I "roll" :laughing9:
