<p>[QUOTE=&quot;larssten, post: 7877874, member: 78319&quot;]Hi,</p><p>I have this 1909-O Barber Half in the raw. </p><p>I think Barber coinage is a bit difficult to evaluate and seeking some advice.</p><p><br /></p><p>Could it get a lower MS-grade…or does it seemed to be cleaned at some point? Looking at it carefully I am kind of missing the frosty surface patina I usually see on say Morgan Dollars that have not been tampered with.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the same time, I can’t see any polish marks. Around its edges closest to the rim, the surface is kind of “prickly” which could be flow-lines from its strike (?) and I can see the same on PCGS Photograde MS62 for this type. So guess that’s normal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, here’s a few photos and would love your second opinion on it. I can also submit more/better photos than these quick cell phone pics if necessary.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1358203[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1358204[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1358205[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1358206[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
