Lot Title: 1914 G-6 and 1915 VG-9
Description: Discerning collectors of even low-grade coins will often focus on original coins grading Good to Very Good and featuring full rims in the Barber Half Dollar series. While such standards would be low for many other series, it is a considerable challenge with Barber Halves as they circulated widely and for many years after minting was discontinued by the mint. Two keys to the series are the 1914 and the 1915, both of which are included in this lot. The 1914 is a stellar coin with regard to original quality. Although the reverse rims are a hint weak at the top- and lower-right-hand edges, there is no merging of peripheral lettering to be seen, and "L....TY" are partially visible, leading to a grade of Good-6. The 1915 is even nicer, and with four letters "LI TY" fully visible, a precise grade of VG-9 can be assessed. This coin is also completely original and exceptionally attractive.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

1914 and 1915-S, both XF.
1914 offers obvious key status, especially at XF-40 with absolutely perfect, sumptuous pewter-grey surfaces. 1915-S isn't rare at all, but this is a nice example with attractive XF-40 sharpness and...

1914 AU details/lightly cleaned.
Indeed, one can easily see the obverse as an AU-55 that has suffered just the most innocuous wipe imaginable. A number of very tiny, wispy hairlines curl across the portrait, but hardly impact the...
