  • my understanding is he only wants coins that are already holed. (and he prefers we don't drill them)

    I think what he goes for are coins that were holed in the time period of there actual use.


    Might want to check with Rob.


  • Cool......Thanks!

  • can anyone give me some grades on these? Thanks. I haven't much experience with halves of this type.

    SS350 is correct- I would never drill a hole in an old coin, unless somebody had already started one in the past. I only collect 'em with contemporary holes.

    And you're right- I do not yet have a Barber half on my Holey Coin Vest. Or a quarter, for that matter.

    Somebody did send me a holed Barber half, but it was a 1911, and I only collect pre-1900 coins on the vest and hat. Barber coins are a little tougher to find holed than Seated coins.

    Thanks for thinkin' about me, though. image

    If you come across an already-holed Barber quarter or half dollar that's dated in the 1800's, let me know!
