Newp Barber Half

I bought this using the Bing 20% Cash Back last weekend. The luster is a little subdued on the obverse and very nice through the reverse toning. Bought at a nice discount from GS after the cashback and e-bay bucks.

    Barber halves are tough and this coin looks like it might have original surfaces.

    Nice looking coin. I've always liked Barber half dollars.

    Brian,

    Very nice original coin - the luster booms thru the golden toning.

    Nice pick up - and good savings too !!

    Post it to the Monster Thread when you can.
