This is one of the most fabulous sets of Roosies I have ever seen. I had the pleasure recently to view each coin in hand and I have to say I cannot choose a favorite. I have narrowed it down to 4. As you peruse through the photos you will see many "WOW" coins. Here is a link to the Lablover Roosevelt Dime Set

 

Try and pick a favorite. It's harder then it looks. My 4 top picks are the 46S, 54S, 58D and 59P....

Without a doubt the 1947-D. An MS68* with incredible eye appeal. Imagine that coin with a better photo. A great set indeed.

I taught Jim everything he knows ^^

 

Ok well at least I have sold him a few Roosies over the years and he lives 20 minutes from me so I get to see these beauties in hand :cloud9:

 

You think the coins are special....you should see his Labs....now those are MS70* dogs for sure :banana:

Thanks everyone for the kind comments.

 

There's really no favorites...how does one choose from all his children. It's been a fun set to build and have met some great Roosie people along the way. I hope everyone enjoys viewing the set.

 

I'm working on producing better images, so check back in from time to time for a colorful feast.

 

Cheers,

 

Jim

Welcome to the forum, Lablover. :hi:

 

 

If you don't mind me asking: Did you make most of these, or buy them already slabbed ?

 

 

I wish I could say I made them. But, I did make a few like the 1959. Found this coin raw for about the price of a Happy Meal.

Howdy Jim,

 

Is that '58-d of mint set origin? That is the best '58-d hands down (worship)

 

 

Jon,

 

I'd say yes, it's of mint set origin. It's the best 1958-D I've ever seen and the image does not do the coin justice.

Lots of new coins to chose from. So hard to pick a favorite. You have to hold the

Lablover 1946S MS67*FTPL to appreciate it. It just glows with mirror fields.
