Daporkiechappy New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 4:47 pm Okay. Thanks. I thought maybe. But it looked too perfect. Like I said, I thought maybe something on the machine at the mint. I'm 3 months into numismatics and silver collecting. Appreciate it! Report this Post to the Staff

Daporkiechappy New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 4:54 pm I do have another Barber quarter that previous owner claimed to be in "F" grade. I am new to it, but I think it's higher grade than that. I can see full liberty, full reeds, all details are sharp. I see there is a coin grading thread. Should I post there? Or can I add it to this one? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

It is best to focus on one coin per topic, so please create a new one for the other Barber quarter. If you want to discuss its grade, then the grading forum is a good place for it!

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 12/21/2022 6:21 pm A full image of both sides of the coin as well as the zoomed part is desired on here. Something else on the coin can lead to a proper evaluation in many cases. My first thought is that someone started to drill a hole in the coin, for use as jewelry etc. Report this Post to the Staff
