Lot Title: 1915 PCGS PF-63 (green label).
Description: Surfaces exhibit hardly any hairlines, which is unusual for a proof coin at the PF-63 level. However, some steely haze propagates over the upper and lower edges of the obverse, and thoroughly dominates the reverse, inhibiting reflectivity in those areas. Although housed in a PCGS green-label holder, this is the kind of coin that might well benefit from modern conservation methods, and the likelihood of subsequent upgrade by about two points makes that a distinct possibility. A coin with intriguing potential. (PCGS# 006562)

1915 PCGS VF-20.
Always desirable as a key to the series, 1915 saw a mintage of only 138,000 - very limited by Barber half standards. Furthermore, while low-grade examples are usually available, any example like the...
602The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$450.00
1915 AU/whizzed.
What appears at first to be absurdly strong luster turns out to be evidence that this coin has been whizzed, with subtle retoning responsible for the nearly original appearance. Clever perhaps, but...
489The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$370.00
1915 NGC VF-20.
At the "very-fine" grade level, 1915 must surely be considered fully a key to the Barber half-dollar series, surpassed in scarcity by perhaps a half-dozen other issues. This is an incredibly...
