The coin is in a PCGS 63 holder. I bought the coin from JJT many moons ago.

    Not a Proof Barber Half like yours but this is at least a Barber.

    Best place to buy !

    Here is the first PR Barber I ever bought, I bought it based off crappy seller pics (show below) with high expectations and was not disappointed! First two photos, second two are mine, and final is @jtlee321 .

    I remember that Barber Half. It sure was a looker and a booger to shoot properly in that plastic. :)

    Part of a 1913 Proof set I put together a few years ago. It's not beautiful, but it will do. I've found that these late date pieces seem to be harder to locate that the earlier dates.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    Same here. I wouldn’t mind a nice MS Barber half, either, as a type coin. Every time I see them at shows; I’m tempted to buy one. They aren’t getting any less expensive or easier to find. Maybe I will act soon.

    Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

    PCGS PR65. Used to be in a PCGS PR64 holder and has a cheek mark, but it's a real looker due to the toning.
