Found in the attic of grandparents house. Should I send this to be graded before selling? I'm not a coin collector by no means.

Probably worth a few hundred dollars if that means anything to you

Yes, this would definitely be worth professional grading and slabbed. Great find! Please come back and let us know what it was graded at...

Very nice coin. I am no expert but I would send it in for grading. I was looking for a Barber quarter for my collection and that is one of the years I do not have.
Rest in Peace

Very nice AU Barber quarter . By all means it deserves a slab. Or you can just put it into a 2x2 and keep it as a sentimental value coin from your Grandparents .

I'll say AU-55 but concerned about that surface issue in back of the head at K8.

It's got quite a bit of detail but I'm a bit thrown off by the color. It LOOKS good but at the same time it doesn't look NATURAL. Might just be the lighting, but I like it for sure. Not often you see O mint barber's with that much detail.

Go ahead and slab it. Worth the money as it is an expensive item.
Although a Barber quarter collector would not need a slab
to appreciate the coin's value.
