George,

Thanks for the picture.

The Barber series doesn't seem to be real popular with many collectors, however I really like it.

The oldest coin I ever found in circulation was a Barber Quarter, back when I was a teenager.  I got it in change while I was at a small amusement park.

I have very few Barber coins in my collection, but as mentioned, I really like them.

 Cheesy

Thank you for your comments Sir CoinCrusader42.

Yes!  You are 100% correct.  Barber Halves were not popular at the time of issue 1892.   Many don't like them or saved them.

According to PCGS report only 10 to 15 coins are availabe in MS 65 and above grade., in each year and mints.

Thank you Sir Goose for your 5 Barber Halves.  Hope you will get a 1892-O or Micro 'o' in your coin hunting.

The 1914-P was possible by the kind  help of Ms. Kitty only.
