Two things must first be determined... First, does the coin have a mint mark? It would be located on the reverse of the coin below the eagle's tail feathers. Second, the grade (condition) of the coin must be determined. Below is a list of values for the 1898 Barber Half Dollar from the three mints at different grades:
1898 Barber Half (Philadelphia - No Mint Mark): G4 - $12.50; VG8 - $15; F12 - $38.50; VF20 - $96.00; XF40 - $160.00; AU50 - $325; MS60 - $485.00; MS63 - $950.00; MS65 - $4,000.00

Most Barber Halves that have been in circulation will fall somewhere in the G - VG grade. For grading assistance you can query Google (www.google.com) on the internet for "grading coins" and choose a website. Whichever site you choose, make sure they use the grading standards as outlined by the A.N.A. (American Numismatic Association). Marc
