its popping some serious details on it, don't know much about proof Barbers other than yours has circulation and double the details of a circulation strike. Look forward to seeing clear pics of your coin. The toning on both sides is looking good though for sure.

try again if you have a phone. these look like scans. if the coin is on a holder remove it if possible. we cant give you an assessment of the coin using these. if you cant get better photos and if it is a proof, it would be impaired as it appears to have been circulated and may grade AU. thats the best I can do with these

1. turn off flash
2. place coin on flat surface with indirect natural light. maybe a window sill in a cloudy day
3. move phone about 3in from coin
4. zoom in using you fingers until the coin comes into focus
5. hold phone steady. if you cant then place something on either side of the coin at that distance and lay phone on top. this will hold it steady and allow you to zoom and take the photo without any blurring

I don't believe this is a proof. It has seen circulation (hair above forehead, cheek) and seems to have reverse rim damage @ 6:00. AU-55

Much better photos of this coin . Coin took on a lot of brown toning but NOT a turn off for me . EF-40-45 . How about them corn kernels.

Can't tell if that's toning or crazy scratching. It looks AU but can't determine the specific grade from these photos.

much better photos. heavily toned coins are much more difficult to assess by photo as a lot over surface issues are masked

i'd say AU55 area. looks like quite a bit of marks on the profile under there
