Fool me once - shame on you, blah, blah, blah...you know the rhyme

Is this coin AU?

Barber Half

Look at the other "AU" auctions this guy has

I'm not sure of the grade, but it sure is a nice bright white.

so was this one in the auction pics: seated half

It looks like a normal everyday EF-40 in my hand -not white at all

His insurance charges are effed up too; the postal service doesn't charge $1.30 per $50 so why shud he?

Looks cleaned... AU details, net XF

You collect Morgans? Check out this AU Morgan and you may have your answerAU I think he is turning up the brightness on his scanner, no way a circulated coin that isn't cleaned should look that color.---IMHO!!!!

Nope !!

This is another of our Esteemed and Trustworthy NorthWest Dealers. There are some dandy's in Washington....

Good call Becky - that settled it for me.

Looks like a cleaned XF 40 coin to me.

mhammerman · September 9, 2004 10:36AM

Hard to clean around those reverse devices...should have just dipped.

Yeah, like in "harshly cleaned"!

ziggy29 · September 9, 2004 11:02AM

You guys are way too harsh. This IS a Power Seller. No badmouthing Power Sellers can be allowed. They are always right.

Looks harshly cleaned and about XF45. It sure isn't a key date though. That is like calling the 1958 Wheat cent a key date in the lincoln series.

Was cleaned. XF net. $100 coin, at most, if the non-originality doesn't bother. Barber half with little wear, no problems and some original mint luster is definitely a $300 coin. They are very, very scarce, however.

sliderider · September 9, 2004 11:38AM

OUCH!! Looks harshly cleaned to me. Avoid like the plague. As a former collector of bodybagged coins, most of his listings throw up all the red flags for me.

oldcameoproofsguy · September 9, 2004 12:21PM

I don't know how anyone can tell the grade from that really crappy image. The only thing that is obvious is that it was cleaned.

ANACONDA · September 9, 2004 12:23PM

That coin is not even close to AU in my opinion and even if it were, it is covered in dings. If you own it, sorry. If you don't own it, don't pay AU money for it.

my3cents · September 9, 2004 1:01PM

i don't- andwon't - own it. A lot of this seller's auction say AU! KEY! and they aren't either

honestly: Is this coin AU???
