I just bought this with some money I got for my bday today. It's a 1902 P Barber Half, that looks to have full rims. Seller's pics are horrible. If you can tell what grade it is, please say, any comments are good comments. I think it's VG or a low F.

I'm pretty sure this is VG. Maybe a 10? Honestly I would have been a little worried about buying a coin online with pictures like that. I hope it turns out well for you.

Edited, I made a mistake.

Yours legitimately looks like the higher VG end of the barber collector society pictures.

I can make out the "LI" of liberty in these bad photos, so there's probably more when you see it personally. The e pluribus unum is also what would ride on the high VG scale.

If all that is correct, then you got it for a few bucks under listed value.

And here's a recent thread about one of my own in almost the same shape as yours, so maybe that'll help too.

VG8 or at most VG10 (can't decide from these photos).
In any case, lovely Barber coin .

It is a VG. Need to see around the "LI" closer to tell if it is 10.
