  1. Which coin do you like better ?

     

    The first coin in an ANACS holder -

    was cracked out by the original seller

    from a PCGS AU 58 holder for his 7070

    Type Album; he then decided to reholder

    the coin w/ ANACS - and it crossed as

    an AU 58. I submitted it to PCGS a few

    months ago. It came back as an AU 55.

    Please excuse the dark images, they are

    from the original seller.

     

    The second coin was purchased raw by

    myself back in 1996 or so - and I sent it

    into ANACS - where it received an AU 53

    grade. Last year, I crossed it to PCGS and

    it received another AU 53 grade. This past

    January, I resubmitted it and it upgraded

    as an AU 58.

    Thanks, Bob and Chris.

     

    Chris, next time there's another show in Ft Myers,

    I'll bring some other Barbers along for "show and tell".

     

    I think you're the only person - other than my Dad -

    whose seen the Barber Dime collection.

     

    Maybe - just maybe - I'll bring the entire series to

    display at the next coin show - I need to locate

    the display case I've seen used before that displayed

    those beautiful Buffalo nickels and Morgan dollars.

    Any thoughts, Chris - who do I contact to borrow

    this display case ?

     

    Okay - I've got a few more images for 1903...I left off with

    the 1903-O half in 58...

     

    Sorry, but I don't have an image of my 1903-S Half in PCGS 58;

    one of these days, I'll send in all the Barbers for TrueView imaging

    and will attach all the images to the Registry sets themselves.

     

    Oh well - here's a nice 1903-P Dime in a PCGS 58 holder:

    Very attractive Buffalo, Lee. Great strike and toning too.

     

    I've been slowly working on a couple of raw sets of Barber

    Half Dollars and now that my second tier set has been sold,

    I'll be adding decent VG8-VF25 - hopefully, original - coins

    to the old Whitman Bookshelf Album.

     

    I'll also be adding XF40-AU58 coins to the Dansco - such as

    the 1902-P I posted last night.

     

    Here are the coins slated for the Whitman - NEWPS from

    this weekend:
