Opinions on this Barber Half?

I don't really know anything about Barber stuff, but I liked the look of this one, so I got it. The only drawback is a little bump at 9:00 o'clock. What do you think?

    Nice looking original coin... I'd guess fine. A whole Barber set in that condition is a very difficult thing. The bump doesn't bother me at all.

    Very nice type coin, and I think its a VF 25. Looks very original. Congrats on the pick up. image

  • Very nice original coin. I would guess it to be in a hi VF grade. If my VF to XF Barber half set, all had that look, I would be pretty happy.

    This appears F/VF to me. A bit too much wear on eagle's wings and the obverse wreath for me to give it a full VF+ rating, but like just about any other coin, if I were to purchase, I'd want to see other pix or see it in hand. Other than that, it looks totally original and nice for the type.
