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.
 

Good one Ace!
 

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

Very nice. Just found my first '76 proof this week as well.
 

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:
 

Congrats on the haircut!
 

Yeah! That will work!
