Unboxing - Barber Half Dollars

Purchased from APMEX.

Are you satisfied?

The 15-S looked pretty decent.



Neat way to start a DANSCO of these, perhaps?

WoodenJefferson

Out of those, which is your pick?

Good job posting the video, should help out people looking to get Barbers from APMEX in terms of expectations.

Very nice Kenny. When I was a young collector I used to buy circulated walking liberty half rolls at coin shows when I could save up enough money. I still remember the excitement of opening them up and finding some nice coins in the rolls. Always made my day when I found one in the teens or twenties. I don't know what got me hooked. Probably because I liked the design and they were silver. Your video brought back some memories. Great job!

Nice presentation. Tells all one needs to know about AMPEX. Out of 3 rolls....figuring only the best was shown...maybe 5 are worth more than melt when selling?

Great job! Thanks for making the video.

super video - nice coins great for starting set



Makes me curious if Apmex selling these and at what price.



thanks so much for sharing. Plan to watch again and jot down dates / grades

It is an interesting video -



I checked APMEX and it looks like rolls are near $160 depending on how you pay



I was surprised how random the dates were, and it seemed those 3 rolls could fill over half a barber half book

but that is probably where the coins came from, albums and keeping the better condition and/or issues putting the rest in rolls.

Take a good look at your 1905. Tougher date.



Enjoyable video.

Thank you for the nice comments.



WoodenJefferson - My favorite half dollars are the 1915-S and the 1905.



Braddock - Yes, I am very satisfied knowing that I would not find one with numismatic value.

It looks like you've made some very cool coin videos Ken.

I remember your world coin one from a year or two ago. Very nice stuff !

When I was 14 ( 50+ yrs ago ) I would have given my eye teeth to have

all those Barber Halves to look over. Although, silver was still in change, I never

got a Barber Half in any rolls. Keep up the good work and we all enjoy your videos.

Great video's Kenny. You capture the personal excitement and fun collecting can be! You brought back memories for me of looking through 1c - 10c rolls when I was young. Couldn't afford quarters or half dollars they were worth too much in the early 1960's! Hope to see you in Colorado for Summer Seminar and happy hunting.
