Most likely grades at VF. My grey sheet currently doesn't have barber quarters so I checked Coins magazine. Prices are always high end retail so I'm saying this coin is worth about $200! (If my grading is correct, which I'm pretty sure it is). Even if it grades at Fine it is still worth $100! You found one nice coin! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
