I have a 1905 S Barber half dollar and I was wondering if anyone can help give me a estimate on whatever grade it would be and how much it would sell for. I recently had my house burglarized and all my coins I've been collecting for years were stolen. So I'm having to start all over and just need some help as I'm fairly new to grading l. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Guessing G or possibly VG details (harshly cleaned).

to the CCF! I'm so sorry for your loss. But I'm glad to hear that your interest in collecting has remained.

Since you say the scratches are on the holder, can you post pictures of the coins outside the holder? Don't forget to crop the photos as well. As of now it looks to be around VG-8 Details, Harshly Cleaned, and unfortunately it would carry little if any numismatic premium over its bullion value.

A great resource for grading is PCGS Photograde Online. Also check out the grading sub forums here at CCF.

In its condition it's only worth silver bullion. I'd say someone polished it

it would work as a filler for someone - I'd value it at around $10.

Good details due to a horrible attempt of cleaning/polishing.
Rest in Peace
