Thanks for this one RLD15

Looks very familiar...

 

 

Coin looks VF 35 - IMHO - I knew I should've kept it.

 

Glad to see you over here, Beancounter.

BEAUTIFUL!

 

That's the ONE coin I am waiting on to complete my set... but I have one locked up already, it just isn't back from grading yet....

[beancounter-migration]

Elbesaar is wrong with the guess, the coin I posted is not the VF25 but the VF25 he posted is my number 2 1901-S.

[Elbesaar]

 

I can now see RLD15 calling you if his raw submission gets a GEN

instead of a grade !!

 

I thought that large image 1901-S looked too nice for a VF 25

then again, I didn't own it long enough to memorize all its nuances.

 

Your large image looks a minimum VF 35.

Here's an old friend that I sold to Tombr in November 2008

and repurchased from him this year...

 

Here's the one in my 2nd set:

 

My better example:

[rld15-migration]

OK... if the one I have lined up doesn't grade.....

 

You uhh... you know who needs one :D

RLD15 - I know of one you'd like...see Ponyexpress8...he'll sell you one.

 

Here are a couple of nice AU 58 V Nickels...

Yup!

 

He's got the one I am waiting on.... just waiting on it getting graded...

 

Oh, I can't access Teletrade from work, but I did snag that XF40 06-O Dime from last night's sale.

 

Like I said, I do like your Liberty Nickels.. I think I want a set of them in AU myself.

For those of you who don't pay attention ATS... someone just found themselves an 1892-o Half. Yep, a Micro O and it graded Good, which is pretty decent, especially since most of these are Fair-AG.

Jim Dimmick found this coin in an album with other raw Barber Halves.

Jim's one of the good guys and I'm very happy for him.

 

RLD15 - you need that coin for your set.

A couple of newps for the 2nd set - nice upgrades:

Love that 1913!

 

I need a Micro O but I want one in at LEAST Fine, the last one Heritage had was a corroded pig

[Elbesaar]

RLD15...

Finding a Micro O in VF is a very tough project.

Maybe you can pry this one out of some one's set ...

 

1892-O Micro O - PCGS VF 25.

Here something new for the second tier set of Halves...

[beancounter-migration]

 

Working on those camera skills, so bear with me please

[beancounter-migration]

 

OK I'm being a wise guy here because I messed posting the obverse to Photobucket, but since it's a Liberty nickel this won't be too difficult.

 

Guess the date

[Elbesaar]

I have to admit - that's a nice looking Denver coin.

 

[beancounter-migration]

 

It's not a "knock your socks off coin" but the obverse stars are nice and bold, particularly for a VF coin.

[Elbesaar]

 

Newp for the 2nd set:

1912-S a very difficult coin to find

[byrne3]

just a few of the halves that I got from my grandfather 10 years ago

[Elbesaar]

 

The last of three coins I picked up

from InYhehWeTrust ATS ...

 

[Elbesaar]

 

Beancounter, what byrne3 has just shown us is

something we've all heard before, natural daylight

is the best resource for imaging.

 

Nice job, byrne3, and I expect your two halves hold

a special place in your collection.

 

I just had one of my Grandfather's coins sent in for

grading...a choice 1892 Half in that I would have

conservatively graded AU 55. It was deemed to have

artifical surfaces.

 

I'll add that coin's image later on tonight.

[beancounter-migration]

I enjoy taking images outside, but hauling all of that equipment, the coins, etc. Our living room has lots of glass, maybe I just need to get that darn furniture out of the way.

I just added my raw coins that were

recently graded to my 2nd tier set of

Barber Dimes.

 

Check them out !!

 

Images will be attached within a week or so

as they are all at the photographer now.

 

Fifteen years in a Dansco has created some

real monster toned coins !!

Grandpa knew a good looking coin when he saw one. Looks like it must be in your blood.

[Elbesaar]

 

Here's a really pretty Dime...

 

1893-S - still raw in the Dansco album.
