They really stand out when among shiny ‘64 halves. I just can’t pass up older 90%.

Always looking for original, better date VF20-VF35 Barber quarters and halves, and a quality beer.

    Yes, all are really nice coins. I passed on a half dozen or so that were monkeyed with, but these were original. All diff dates/mms. I'm guessing they bought a small collection and just tossed them in with the 90%. Turn and burn is the name of the game these days.

    I look for ones just like that for one of my albums, that’s the perfect look for Barbers

    A fun find! Had a dealer years ago that even left the better dates in the “junk” bins. It was like treasure hunting.

    Show me a modern coin that wears as well. Sweet grouping!

    Nice - most barbers I get as junk are VERY worn.

    Yes I go to count them up and make stacks of 10, the Barber stacks are always noticeably shorter than the walkers and mercuries and stuff.

    Yeah, throw them in a roll and see how short it comes up vs. Walkers or Franklins.

    That was before silver ran up. Solid good and even VG Barbers have no premium left. You're going to find s lot of them in 90% buckets.
