TomB Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I like your 1838 RE half, but your 1897 Barber half looks outstanding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbesaar Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 vtrockin, Nice halves - and I can't blame you a bit for picking up either coin. The Bustie is just amazing ! The 1897-P was the second to last coin I needed for the current Whitman album. I ended up with a decent looking, IMHO, 97-P in PCGS 40 from a fellow collector, Two_Tone35, aka: UMAKEM, on an eBay auction two months ago. I like your's equally. Nice pick up. My newps are listed on the Barber Thread ... all quarters: 1904-P, 1904-O and 1907-D and they are all in the same PCGS newer holder and graded accurately as well. No CAC stickers - yet - as I feel that most coins already certified have not been sent to CAC for their Green Football Award. These three new quarters have the MFH sticker of approval !

awb Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I've had these for I'm not sure how long, and I recently rediscovered them. The "coins" (I'm not sure if they're real or fake) are polished, with a thumb screw mounted on the back of them. I guess they'd go on a belt or something like that? The Kennedy half is offered for size comparison. Here are a few coins I've picked up over the last couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revenant Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 This was a major impulse buy. I saw it with about 2 hours left on the clock and said, "if I can get it for $20 or less I'll take it." Well, I got it after shipping for $19.90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

physics-fan3.14 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I've been in a buying frenzy lately, but this is my latest. 1952 NGC MS-65 FBL toner. Mmmmmm. It looks considerably better in hand than these pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Nice Frankie Physics. Is that line on the face on the slab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
physics-fan3.14 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Thanks. No, I was hoping the line would be on the slab when I bought it. Its not nearly as prominent in hand as it is in the picture, though. Just a streak of darker toning. The reverse is really why I bought this one.

bsshog40 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 That's a shame. That's probaly what kept that from 66 and maybe 67. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stgecko Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 (edited) My first Texas commemorative. OMG too funny, I didn't even notice that it was backwards!
