coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/22/2007 10:23 pm I personally haven't seen a clash that strong on a Barber coin before...and I've seen quite a number of them. I'd say it's unusual. Probably not value added, but unusual. Report this Post to the Staff
TLS5933 Pillar of the Community United States 1703 Posts	Posted 01/22/2007 10:32 pm Thanks cc, this is the first one I have seen.I wish I could have taken better pictures.The entire coin is clashed.its hard to find a spot on it that isn't.You can see the entire head outline from the obverse on the reverse of the coin. I have looked at many more Barbers tonight and have yet to find another like it.Heres another pic of it. Edited by TLS5933 01/22/2007 11:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 01/23/2007 7:20 pm Kinda depends on the number, TLS. Looks like a PCGS slab, right? It's probably beyond my current reach at about MS63 or better. I just pulled the trigger on a Canon 350D and a nice macro lens so I'm hesitant to throw much more cash around, at least for a few days. Shoot me a number in email, if you think I'll still be interested. I'm at the keyboard for another couple hours straight. Report this Post to the Staff
