Very nice Trime - as a matter of fact -

an 1862 was my first - and only - Trime too.

Ok - the commems got stuck for awhile... lets do either 1921 dated coins

[ such as the Pilgrim above ] - Buffalo Nickels - or - errors.

... and in this case ... all three !!

Jom, PM sent.

I have decided to keep this one:

.... and into the "fire" - in a manner of speaking...

PCGS - San Francisco - PCGS 55

I had PDS set of 1921 Halves TruViewed a couple of years back.

Don't know where the D Minted one is...

Sorry for the small images - I need to re-import them to Photobucket.

Seems the size of the images are predicated as to when I uploaded them

to Photobucket and when I adjusted the import size on Photobucket.

I just uploaded the 1892-O to Photobucket - maybe one of these days,

I get around to replacing most of the images. I just retired - so - that'll

keep me busy for awhile.

63,549 - Hits so far since I started this Thread

Can't believe its been a month since I - or anyone else for that matter - posted

to this Thread. Be that as it may - I'm going to start posting images of my Dimes

followed closely with the Quarters and then, the Halves.

FYI - my collection will be hitting the block on August 11 & 12 at Heritage's

Pre-ANA auction. I will be there as well and if anyone else is attending, please

stop by and say Hello ! ... I will also be assisting Glenn Holsonbake at his table

during the Pre-Show and the ANA as well. I'll be at table # 1348.

My old 34-S...

Ankur - those are some very special coins !!

---------------------------------------------------------------

A friend of mine sent me a PM early this morning

saying he located a coin I had been searching for.

There has been an MS 66 bouncing around Teletrade for quite a few weeks - and every time I bid on it - I guess I don't make the reserve; although I keep upping my bid when I see it up again, I keep loosing out on it. That MS 66 is a POP One - POP Top - and the coin I bought is a POP Two in 64 FB - no 65's - and - one 66 FB [ the coin I keep loosing out on...].

So - as you can see, I'm pretty happy about this.

okay ... lets try and get this moving again...

Proof IHC's are beautiful - and that 1873 is no exception.

Thanks for sharing, Dean.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Something new - and I have nothing like this in my collection.

A little background on the date, a friend recently had this

date certified at Sacramento - although it was a VF 35 - it

was a very rare die variety - the Curly Base 2. I was very

attracted to the series - and although I am not a variety

collector - I can easily see why some are.

Needless to say - here's my newp:

Obviously, the holder has the lines - not the coin.

PCGS 58 - Small 10c

Too late Irwin... the coin is an Indian Head Cent or 1898 dated coin.

Too late on the 1879-S Morgan...

Okay - its now 1891 dated coins or Indian Head Cents ...

... don't make me post any more Barbers...

Morgans - now, that's what I thought would drive this Thread -

Guess I was wrong !! Three days and no posts ?

Ok - somehow - I'll get out of Morgans - and into a non Barber

coin -

Got to love that Walker !!

-------------------------------------

I threw in a few bids for SLQ's - and won this coin -

its not a FH - but awfully close !! Its also very well struck

in all areas. Full shield rivots and central shield verticals.

Ok - lets get out of Barbers - as this thread stopped dead...
