Including a gold page I am going to add later on, I was thinking that I would try to create a complete set of Barber halves in VF or better. Looking at the prices, this would probably be a challenge, but more fun than quarters because this series has a lot of better dates/semi keys. It would be pretty awesome I could actually do that.

But I guess first things first, eh?

Your impediments will be, just like Bust Halves, more about demand than supply. Barber halves are quite available, but you're not exactly the only person with this in mind.

This would be a good excuse to build a personal database of the nooks and crannies of Internet coin dealing - there are a million dealers trying this new-fangled Internet stuff, and many of them do not appear in common searches. I'm not sharing my data.

This is true. There are always the few keys.

Its easier to complete a Barber Half collection with mint state coins than it is in the higher circlulated grades such as VF-AU. Good luck. You will have fun but it will take some time.

BTW this is a set I too would like to complete someday in the VF-AU range.
