    Thank you, Dean. I appreciate the compliment.

     

    I have always loved Proof IHC's and only have

    a couple [ 1889 and 1891 - Grandparents Birthyears ]

     

    I have enjoyed looking at your coins often and have

    spent hours gazing at them over the years you have

    been collecting them.

     

    My collection has been focusing on my Family's

    birthyears - ie: my Grandparents - and my Parents.

     

    My Mom's set actually won the # 1 Set at NGC for 2011

    ..."Annika's Set" ... for 1921... its missing 2 coins - both of

    which I have owned - or own - just not able to be registered.

     

     

    My Grandfather's Proof Set for 1889 also won the # 1 Spot for 2011

    as well, for the ninth consecutive year, but just this past week

    it has be surplanted my YeOldeOne - Mr. Gardner with his partial set.

    That's a great War Time Silver Nickel - beautifully struck and has fantastic luster !!

     

    Congrats on that Pick Up.

    I have been searching for a 1917-S Cent for my Dad's Birth Year Set.

    I did find an interesting pair of off centers - but none with a Regular Strike

    that didn't have issues. Today, I stumbled across this - no spots - a RB -

    and well struck for the issue [ IMHO ]
