I was just about to list a worn 1909 barber half on ebay. Melt is about $24. I was going to start the auction at $20. But when I checked Numismedia, the list price for the most common Barber half dollars in G4 condition is $34. Can that possibly be right? I don't buy or sell early 20th century coins that often, so if I'm missing something, please enlighten me.

I remember watching NumisMedia raising "bottom end" values during the silver run up late last year. Since silver is still rather volatile, maybe the market (or NumisMedia's read of the market) sees people holding on longer and hoping for another run.

Here's a 1909 half up for auction that started at $24.99. It ends in 1 hour with no bids yet.

Yeah, that's more what I expected. A really worn Barber half is not going to exceed melt.
