numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11898 Posts	Posted 03/24/2018 1:55 pm This was an interesting purchase for $5. It is a two-headed Barber half dollar. One obverse has an 1892 date and the other an 1893 date. The surfaces look BU and I was wondering whether it was made from two original Barber half dollars. I looked at it carefully and I think the coin was made by sandwiching two real Barber halves. What do you think? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff
