epikur Pillar of the Community Sweden 729 Posts	Posted 06/05/2012 7:06 pm Here's my latest purchase. Paid about F-15 money for it. A big fan of Barber quarters and Halfs, so I like it alot;) Would grade it about VF-35 due to the full liberty and fully separated feathers How would you grade it? Thanks in advance Anders Report this Post to the Staff

If the lower edge of the LIBERTY band were fully defined it would probably get no arguments at EF-40. Nice coin, perfect for a better-grade circulated type set, and a steal at F-15 pricing. Congrats!

epikur Pillar of the Community Sweden 729 Posts	Posted 06/06/2012 12:12 pm I really like the barber design for quarters and halves. Good thing they aren't in very high demand. Can pick up G-VG coins fairly cheap, but I aim for better grades. Good thing is, not too many people in the European Craig's lists know how to price the coins they sell. ;) Report this Post to the Staff
