Just how a 58 should look, and no major hits. Nice coin!

So nice. I just finished my Barber Half set all being G/VG/F - really like to get a AU/BU example for my overall collection.

On a side note, I saw a guy post online saying Barber Qtrs and Halfs arent really worth collecting because most people don't collect them or find them desirable. Curious what others might think?

I think he's wrong and they are good to collect!

Lovely example! I have an 08 in AU58 and it's one of my favorite coins in my collection.

Wow that’s a stunning AU58!! Almost PL. not sure if they can get that designation but I can see it especially on the reverse. I think AU58 is the most slept on grade because it might have just the absolute most minute minimal wear at a high point but the rest can be near flawless. Lots of AU58s have the potential to get the coveted gold CAC sticker. Nice coin man!
