RGT Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I agree. Thats one nice barber! Most definitely! Thanks for the comments. Would you believe that one is graded ANACS MS62? I picked it up on ebay for my daughters "century set" that I'm working on and was pleasantly surprised. It's only the second MS Barber quarter I own. It has some minor tics but the luster is excellent and I could see this in an MS63 holder easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruceswar Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Makes for a sweet buy. But that coin is not MS62 in my mind. Nice Pickup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZ_E Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 That's pretty cool! Is the reverse the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOILER78 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I just picked this one up. I am thinking about adding it to the pattern type set. This has always been among my favorite pattern designs a true pattern and a design/metal combination that Longacre lobbied strongly for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGT Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I was gonna "ditto" too, but I figured it must be a love token or something. Seriously, knowing the kind of stuff he buys I bet it's a stunner on both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOILER78 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I suppose if you muled the obverse from this coin with the reverse from this coin You would be right Hayden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IGWT Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 Wasn't the first one that you owned just a bit nicer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGWT Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 And doesn't the 561 come with a hub trial? Sorry, but this is my one and only opportunity to tease Boiler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeKing Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Lou, is that yours? Maybe you can pull a Mickley and mule that obverse with the reverse they were talking about. ps Boiler78, that is one of my favorite Patterns and a really beautiful design.

BOILER78 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 IGWT- The first one I owned was definitely better! I love the hub trial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeKing Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 oh...and I finally recieved the 1837 I posted earlier. The BM photo was pretty washed out. I did hit the contrast button using photoshop on this but that's what I had to do to get the toning to show up more like it is. Photo's taken with a reveal bulb. There are some hairlines from an old wipe, more than I anticipated, but I still feel it's a magnificent coin. The reverse is a real stunner. Nice secondary toning.

EZ_E Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I got this in early June from James, EarlyUS but Bruce captured it so well that I wanted to share it again. For a VF30 coin, it sure is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coin Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Got an 1858-O Seated Half from Mr Clark outta Pensacola ,FL at the Vicksburg,MS coin club show , but it has a little greenish PVC goo and I need to do a before and after before posting shots , which means that I will actually hafta finally try to figure out how to post pics . I stopped by the Battlefield INN in Vicksburg where the show was while on my way to Dallas Sunday. Me an the partner got in a little late so I'll be reading how-to posts on pics later today.

Here's a recent post by TomB stating how to post an image: To attach an image you should have the image saved as a jpg format at 200kb or less and then make certain the box for I want to preview my post and/or attach a file is checkmarked. This box is directly above the "Continue" button that you must click to submit a post. You will then see your post, although it will not yet be "live", and below the post there is another box that states You may attach a file if you like (no bigger than 200000 bytes please). At this point you should use the "Browse..." button to select the file from your computer and make certain the file name appears in the box to the left of that button. Then click the "Ok, submit" button and you should be fine. And, there you go...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
