I don't know what to do with it book or holder?



Hoard the keys.

    I vote holder. Nice

    Horizontal scratches on the obverse may hurt it. Nice one though.

    Yes some look like they are from book slide and some are die scratches in the field.

    Looks nice....worst case AU58, but really more like a 62/63.
    Put it in an album for a few years, let it get some rim tone, then submit it.

    Looks like a nice 58 to me. A little toning will help it out.

    I love them Barber Halves.....

    Whatever you do with it I find it attractive. Skip the album, put it a small manella coin envelope. It tends to create nicer color. JMO of course.
    Very nice addition.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    That is a nice old Barber.... looks as if it may have had a 'quick dip', but plenty of remaining luster. Cheers, RickO
