I was fortunate to have been offered a large group of

Barber Dimes - all in the grade I collect - and most were

missing from my certified set.

 

I won't post too many at once - but - will post an image

every so often. { Just to keep this Thread alive...}

 

Here's a duplicate 1892-S in PCGS 58

This coin could also be placed under new aquisitions.

I have studied this coin carefully and compared it to other V nickels of higher grade and have decided that this coin has the eye appeal.

 

Cheers

Can we just rename this thread the "Elabasaar Thread"? ;)

 

Who's Elabasaar ? Its Elbesaar.

 

No - I would not like to have this renamed.

It does seem as if I am about the only active collector

of Barbers though. I encourage everyone to add to

this Thread.

 

There have been over 11200 hits on this Thread

but only 430 +/- posts.

 

There are over 2800 posts to the Barber Thread

accross the street - [ also, an unknown number of hits ].

 

If everyone feels that they would rather not have me post

anything from my collection - so be it.

I got all exited when I saw the date, but, alas, I see no "S."

 

Great looking coin, though! (thumbs u

 

 

If you squint your eyes really hard you'll see an S.

 

Its in the word: States .... :D

I'm very much active! I may have just begun my pursuit but I am on the prowl always. Its just hard to find eye-appealing AU examples from what I've seen.

Edited to add - Hopefully a NEWP finds its way to me after the LB sale.

Twas a joke, did you not see the wink at the end of my thread? Sorry I misspelled your name though, I didn't do that intentionally. The reason I said that is because inevitably, 9 out of 10 times I read this you are buying a new barber... maybe I'm just jealous. ;) see, another wink!

Truly I was only joking, I enjoy great coins with great pics! Everyone who knows me knows that for sure.

 

Sorry if I took any offense - I have always felt that I may have been

over doing it by posting my Newps - or older images. I'm obsessed

with the types in all denominations and am always looking - either for

upgrades or additions.

 

I've assembled three sets of halves - and have sold off coins that I have

upgraded. My better set in AU/MS is almost complete in the final grade

I want the set to be in. I have five coins in 53-55 that I want in 58 - or if none

are available in 58 - then I'm interested in 63-65's.

 

I'll cool it for awhile and post the other new dimes I just bought which

complete my set [ sans the 1897-O in 55-58 ] which is a duplicate set

to my raw set in a Dansco album. The Dansco album is complete and

all are equal to the certified coins I have been posting recently.

 

My Quarter set is also under revision - and I need a half dozen to get this

set in the grade I'd like. I was recently offered a really nice upgrade for my

1896-S which I have in PCGS 53 - with another in PCGS 62 - but I feel the ask price is just too steep [ IMHO ] but the seller came down $2,000 - but he still

needs to sharpen his pencil.

 

I feel alot better now that I realize you were just "hazing" me. I didn't want

to continue to post images if everyone thought I was overdoing it.

 

Happy hunting everyone !

You should put a link up to your registry set, I'd love to see a set put together of the magnitude you are talking about. I know there a lot of keys in the Barber series so for you to have completed several sets is absolutely amazing.

Can you post a pic of the completed Dansco?

I'm on Cape Cod and my collection is in Florida in the SDB's.

I've never taken images - but this Fall, I hope to take a class

in imaging.
