I paid about 2.5 times more this time around in a depressed toner market lol It was brutal buying toned coins at the show but really the coin wasn't all that expensive....it was just downright cheap the first time I bought it from greattoning.

That's a beauty Shane. Always nice to find long lost coins and bring them home again. :cloud9:

 

I wish I could have gone this year, and hope to make it next year.

I spent three exciting days at FUN and met quite a few

Barber collectors - and the meeting of the BCCS was very well

attended. There was a great show and tell - everyone brought

something to discuss...I brought my 1905-O Micro O Dime in AU 58.

 

I also was able to pick up a half dozen newps ... no images yet - save one -

which was on the dealer's website:

 

1902-OHalfPCGS64CACPL.jpg

 

Its in a PCGS MS 64 holder with a green CAC sticker.

Its got deeper amber proof like - cameo features - than

the image suggests. It took my breath away when I first

laid eyes on it. One of the better struck 1902-O's I have

ever seen as well.

 

Once the other newps are imaged, I'll post those as well.

I haven't bought any gold type in several years but the gold bug must have bit at the FUN show........... 10 of the 14 coins I picked up were gold. This half eagle is the only one I have images of at the moment.

You know, Mike, I just discovered something today. Your collection has become so heavy that Naples is now downhill from Ft. Myers. I can just put my car in neutral and roll the 20+ miles.
