GTG

This is a really nice mix of Barber half dollars I am sending in. All the way from the first year to last. Including some some soft struck years and a well struck part of another year. These are going in at FUN so it will be a spell until I know the results. Enjoy, and thanks for guessing!

Very nice looking Barbers
Just a guess (not my series)
92 55
95o 30
00s tough one 25-30
08 40
15d 45 my favorite of the bunch nice slate grey

 

Don't know too much about grading Barbers so I will likely embarrass myself but here goes....

1. AU53
2. VF25
3. VF20
4. VF35
5. VF30
6. XF40

 

I'm gonna' have some fun:

(in order)

 

1892 - 50
1895 - 35
1900 - 20
1908 - 25
1909 - 20
1915 - 40

 

I would gladly welcome any or all of those to my collection.

 

1892 - 45
1895 - 20
1900 - 12
1908 - 20
1909 - 15
1915 - 25

 

I'll guess:

1892 =AU50
1895-O =VF30
1900-S =VF25
1908 =VF30
1909 =VF20
1915-D =VF30

Good luck and keep us posted!

 

I don't generally participate in GTGs with so many coins, but in this case, I grade them all "WANT". It's so terribly hard to find honest, mid-grade circulated Barbers.

 

92-45
95-o 30
1900-s 25
08-30
09-20
15-d 40

 

1892-XF 45
1895-VF 35
1900s-VF 25
1908-VF-25
1909- FV-20
1915d-VF35

 

Thanks everyone for guessing. My guesses:

40
25
15
25
20
35

 

40 shot 45
25 possible 30
15 agreed
25 possible 30
20 agreed
35 agreed

 

Regardless of grades you get (which I'm sure will be right where you think), those are all wonderful circulated halves. You've got a great collection.

 

Grades are in:

• 1892- XF 45
• 1895 O- VF 30
• 1900 S- VF 25
• 1908- VF 30
• 1909- VF 25
• 1915 D- VF35

The 00-S really surprised me. I usually shoot low, but wouldn't have thought it would get a 25. I'll take it though!

 

That is one fine group of Barbers. IM me for my address if you ever get bored with them.

 

Whoa I didn't get a single one. I'm thinking Mainebill was the closest, with 4 out of 6 correct and just 5 points off on the others. Just for interest I averaged the guesses, all are very close but the two 25's each averaged 21 so maybe a bit of a bonus there?

 

Great results.
Congrats

 

Congrats!

 

Edited: the 1900-S looks like a textbook 25 if you look at the coinfacts app.
