  I notice a lot of 62 coins tend to hang around, ignored because of (assumed) problems with the low grade... this one shows why I always look at those 62s closely. Nice!

  62 is the "borderline" grade. You can sometimes find some pretty nice coins in 62 holders, and sometimes they can be pretty doggy. A lot of technical 58s that are very nice wind up in 62 holders, too. I don't see any rub on this one, though. Nice.

  I thought that there may be a few Barber Series collectors who might appreciate this pretty little coin.

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