TomB Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Jeff, I truly love RE halves and think they are one of the backwaters (in a good way) of US coinage. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtryka Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 You know, I bought this one for my 7070 (which the monkey also sold me!) and now I am thinking about maybe keeping it in the slab for my Bust set. I've spent most of my time in busties looking at the 1807-36 seriesbut these represent a really interesting transitional design that I might need to spend more time with!

TomB Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Try to find any 1839-O with original skin and you will quickly find out what a maddening series this short set can become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbesaar Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Broadstruck lead me to a web-site awhile ago and I found this little gem AU-58 dime for my duplicate set of certified Barber Dimes.

Elbesaar Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Hi Chris, I try and get away every Summer to the cottage on Cape Cod; some years its only a week or two, other years - like last year and this - I got 6-8 weeks ...its all predicated on sales and how busy I am - or not. This year I made my sales quota by mid March - and then by July, sales were stagnent...so...off to the Cape I went. EDIT : EDIT: EDIT: EDIT: I decided not to have the 2 walkers sent to me because of the NEWP of the following 1909-O Half in NGC 58. Both of Broadstruck's Walkers are superior for the grade and otherwise, I would have been thrilled to have added them to my collection; however, Barbers are my main interest and as we all know - we can't buy everything we would like to.

stgecko Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Great looking coins all! You have inspired me to buy another coin. PS My BTW, 18 coin set is now ranked as number 9!

RareSov Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Received the first Jacksons Liberty today, amazing looking coin but some tiny spots in the frosted finish under magnification. No 70 fingers crossed on the next one Let me rephrase. AMAZING looking coin. The mints image gives a good account but seeing one for real is much nicer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbrown4 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Just received today, an 1883 Train Medal designed by both Barber and Morgan. The images do not do the colors/toning on this medal justice. The other aspect I like is that on the reverse where it could be engraved as to who it was awarded to is blank. So in my mind, since this is another addition to my Railway/Railroad/Train related coins and medals set in honor of my Father, this one is awarded to him.

stgecko Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Ok this was an upgrade purchase from MS65. A very inexpensive jump up to a great looking golden toned 1946S BTW. It's also the coin I have with the most toning now. I find I like the golden color which is more prevalent on the reverse. Included is a pic of the entire BTW set w/ the following dates/grades. All graded by either NGC or PCGS 1946 MS66,65,66 1947 MS65,65,65 1948 MS65,65,66 1949 MS66,66,66 1950 MS66,65,66 1951 MS65,65,65 Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadaKen-migration Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 This is a cry for help. I am a new person to this site and do not know where to go or how to "post" my questions. Maybe you can help me. I have some US coins that I would like to know what they are worth? They are Saint Gaudens, Bufaloe nickel, and a Morgan. If you could direct me to the right site that would be great. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
