Collectors take advantage of the lower premiums associated with Extra Fine, when it comes to the higher numismatic, lower minted coins. The Extra Fine Barber Half Dollars exhibit a slightly shinier surface, due to the small amount of wear on the coin. Most intricate detailing, such as Liberty's stunning headpiece of leaves, is almost fully intact and holds up well when being compared to an AU Barber Half Dollar. For the Extra Fine Barber Half Dollars, the grading scale used to consider the condition is between XF40-49. This is a wide gap for the Extra Fine Half Dollars and is considered into the pricing.
