I do not collect the Barber series. She is ugly (apologies Mr. Student) and has been abused. Is there a market for semi keys in this condition? What, hate to ask, do you think is the value?

There's always a market for lowball key and semi-key dates. That said, what kind of value to expect? I couldn't say.

That's a tough date! Great melt bin find for sure.
Not a huge dollar value but it's in problem free, original condition, I would say maybe $50.

Very nice melt bucket find

This is a harder date coin to find. There are many collectors for lower grade Barber halves. Many would love to have the 1913 hole filled with this one.

From what I can see, full rims with some detail. I think it would be at least
a G-6. I think $50 to $60, maybe more if the coin looks better in hand.

Nice find! I'll have to go against the others and say G-4. Yes the rims are full but the design looks to worn for a 6.

Ugly? She has a great personality!
I'm in at G-4 with problem(s).
Market value must be discounted.
I'll estimate at 2 1/2 times melt.
Well worth rescuing from the melting pot.
Hoarded in good and very good so available.
