<p>[QUOTE="petro89, post: 1287072, member: 17048"]I think it is more of a 35. At the same time though, the Barber coinage is hard to find in the middle grades, specifically the half dollar which was kinda the workhorse back then. It is not uncommon to see VF-XF coinage to go for much higher than the FMV, especially when dealing with lower mintage or well struck/attractive issues. it is often times easier to find mint state Barber Halves than it is to find nice honest VF-AU coins. The 1910S hasd a mintage of just under 2 million which is just about average. I wouldn't have expected it to get as high as it did but I am not totally shocked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
