I need 8 more Barber halves for the set and this is one. Most coins are G-VG and either of these would fit well. Which do you like? Or, should I keep looking?

I prefer the second, despite the lower grade. The grades should be the same - I see little distinction.

I personally like the crusty look of the first one.

The second is more attractive to me, but personally, I would be patient and keep looking.

You could try for this one at Great Collections, which I think looks nicer.

I prefer the first one, but I would keep looking for a bit before pulling the trigger.
