<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RedTiger, post: 643999, member: 19098&quot;]Yes, that is a nice looking coin. The buyer may plan to crack it out and try to sell it raw on Ebay, and use the old song and dance about grandma&#039;s hoard and how the coin has been in the family since 1900. With the right story, right photo, the odds of that coin landing a fish willing to pay full AU or even MS money are pretty good. </p><p><br /></p><p>Those looking for totally original AU Barber halves best get a comfortable chair. There aren&#039;t that many out there. Some AU Barbers that look original at first glance, or to a novice (less than five years), I would term &quot;faux original.&quot; These are messed with then retoned to look good enough to suspend disbelief, but messed with nonetheless. A good many are in top tier no-problem holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
