VF 20, looks like a solid coin for this tough issue.
I'll guess F15

I would say VF20... I am not very good at low grades though....Cheers, RickO
Think I will toss some lower grades in there to give some folks some perspective of how these are graded.
It should be F-15, since it doesn't have the band under the LIBERTY.
But, seeing your other F-15, I would guess VF-25

Quite the variable on how much liberty is visible on those.

Here's some other VF's....wish I could find my other pictures. They must be hidden in my old computer or I'm known to mislabel a picture so I can't find it easily.

VF20 - going with the plurality.
I think the OP's coin is a 20... very nice!

Yes, that is truly the “canonical” circulated Barber half!

Here is the only 20 I've sold around 7 or 8 years ago. Had to really dig to find this pic!
Just curious!
I thought PCGS split the VF grades based on the wing feathers, hard to tell from the obverse pics above.

Thanks for your responses! Here is the slab picture.
Nice coin, and for me, a pretty good lesson on grading these.
still learning
Thought I was a little high especially with all the other guesses. But the clean fields and eye appeal carried it.
93-S's are not graded like 1909 P's!
