Grades for the 1910 Half Dollar?

[dannyboy]

Continuing my quest....I understand coins range from 1-65+ in grades. Anyone want to take a guess where this one would fall? Thanks.

I'd say maybe VG8?

This is a VG8 though some might aggressively grade the piece as a VG10. Barber half dollars are actually fairly tough to find with any real meat on them, so this is likely better than the average extant piece for the series.

look's like a VG to me. Nice Barber

I agree with the VG8 also.

Laurel leaves are too flat and the S mint mark shows flattening on half the letter. I would G-4 at the most.

I would go with VG-10, because E PLURIBUS UNUM is fully readable on this "type 2" reverse hub.

 

If it were a "type 1" hub, the coin could possibly push F-12.

 

This is all assuming "today's" grading standards.

VG 8 - just shy of a VG 10 - nowhere near a F 12

I also would say VG-8. Nice enough looking coin. It would make F-12 if LIBERTY was almost complete, according to the new 2009 Redbook and the ANA grading guide. I think it's a bit short of a VG 10.

I would agree with VG10 because of good detail, considering the series. Additionally, the 1910-S Barber half dollar is a pretty scarce date in any higher grade.
