Older images of my 1904 Proof Dime ...

.

Another new image ...

Nice additions Kenny (thumbs u

Nice stuff ... wow

Continuing with the newer Dime images...

The last three dimes are terrific. Not sure which I like best...maybe the 05-S.

 

On the 03-O quarter I'd guess MS62 or an AU grade. I see hairlines....

Jom,

The 05-S is my favorite - and have had it for some time now.

Happy Memorial Day ...................

The 05-S above is a favorite of mine - and I am glad I kept it out of my last

auction - and the coin looks exactly like this in hand. The only thing that is

impossible to capture is the flash the luster gives when you swirl the holder

in hand !

Here's another from the last group to be imaged::

I got my CD today with my new images of a bunch of MS Dimes...

I hope the size is correct - I don't want to be hassled with Photobucket ...

[ as this system only allows 5 images - and each coin has three images -

it looks like I'll be adding one coin a post !

Moving this along for the long weekend...

I know, I need to add the new images that Messydesk [ John Baumgart ]

has taken of the last group he imaged for me - I am waiting for the CD

so I can show decent detailed images. Soon, I promise, very soon.

Here's a new addition to the most recent Quarter collection -

............. yes, its in a CAC holder................. I've got more

coins for John to image ... but these are not too bad for seller's images.

Care to guess the grade ?

128,068

Great images - and as the young boy mentioned... Bob's Lincolns are sick !

In a good way !!

I upgraded my 27-D SLQ from an MS 63

to this minor upgrade.....

Larger images forthcoming.

Just received Messydesk's images of a Bakers Dozen of my more recent Barber coins.

Here's an 1892-P - Quarter from Ponyexpress Coins - Holsonbake Numismatics -

and its the start of another AU collection. No MS coins will be allowed !

At the moment - another half dozen Barber Quarters are now at CAC.

Once received back, I'll have those coins imaged as well.

I'll be adding additional images on a daily basis.

I bought these coins from a online coin store that claims that the coins they are selling are Gem 3 for $44.99 as a wholesale price. Then I received this coin, and can not tell if the coin is Gem and also is this a Micro s or a regular s? Can people please give me their opinion on the grade and also if this is a micro s or a regular s?

 

[L=Link][/L]..... See if this helps...(NOPE, SORRY)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A minor upgrade for the Dime collection.

I have seen this coin for a few days on eBay and decided to pick it up...

1926-D NGC 65 FH

A little something that cried out to me --- its too pretty to leave in a dealers inventory box - its in a lowly MS grade - and although it doesn't hold a candle to my MS 64, it sure is mighty pretty !

Thanks, Frank. Yes it's a PL - and mildly reflective. I just sent it along with 8 more

AU Barber Quarters to CAC for inspection. Once I receive them back, off to the

photographer they go. I will post images as soon as I can.

Justin, I thought I was thrilled with the 1896-S Half in my set in a PCGS 40 holder.

It has the look that attracts serious collectors. I was chatting with Glenn via text and he

said he had a few Dimes I might be interested in... Which there was, a 1907-S in AU 53.

What he neglected to tell me was that he just listed the new 96-S Half in AU 50. Don't get

me wrong, I love all Barbers, and could easily start yet another set, but I am enjoying just

upgrading a coin here or there. Well, the new 96-S in AU 50 is already on its way to CAC.

My other 96-S in XF 40 is on it's way to Glenn ( sorry it wasn't with him at ANA ) and he'll

have it at Long Beach is it hasn't sold by then. This coin was off the market for years and

was in raw state and sent to PCGS in December.

Ok, happy hunting everyone !!

Just so happens that I picked up a 1913 Quarter today.....

Spotted this Quarter - thought it was a nice addition to my new set:

( will have to add it from Photobucket - seems the file size is too large. )

Spotted this very original coin and an upgrade for my XF 40

125,718

Picked up another upgrade for the Dime collection...

Just added this to my latest set - have a pair of XF 45's -

but this one has a warmer look.

125,586

Robec - That's one very special coin - one of the nicest I have seen in AU !!

Aside from a smattering of Barbers - I was able to upgrade my SLQ collection yesterday on the Heritage Auction. The 27-D I have is a nice MS 63 - now - I have a nicer struck MS 64 with a CAC... Pretty pleased with it:
