  1. While at FUN, I was able to pick up two more Barbers,

    an 1899-O Quarter in PCGS 64 - a truly stunning coin, and

    a 1903-S Dime in PCGS 63 - a very pretty coin and solid for

    the grade. Looks MS - 64-65, IMHO.

     

    No images yet - I plan on having the Dime reholdered as the

    plastic is scratched - and while its at PCGS, I'll have it True-Viewed

    by Phil - PCGS's photographer.

     

    I plan on having the 99-O Quarter imaged but not for awhile; I'll be

    sending in the entire set for review this year and will have images taken

    at that time.

  2. vtrockin,

     

    Nice halves - and I can't blame you a bit

    for picking up either coin. The Bustie is

    just amazing ! The 1897-P was the second to

    last coin I needed for the current Whitman album.

     

    I ended up with a decent looking, IMHO, 97-P in

    PCGS 40 from a fellow collector, Two_Tone35,

    aka: UMAKEM, on an eBay auction two months ago.

     

    I like your's equally. Nice pick up.

     

    My newps are listed on the Barber Thread ...

    all quarters: 1904-P, 1904-O and 1907-D

    and they are all in the same PCGS newer holder

    and graded accurately as well. No CAC stickers - yet -

    as I feel that most coins already certified have not been

    sent to CAC for their Green Football Award.

     

    These three new quarters have the MFH sticker of approval !
