92 S Barber Half in VF. Closing in on the end of this series...
@Race--nice coin! Great to see original Barbers that haven't been dipped or polished to make them look "allegedly better." Congrats on nearing the end of the series!
Thanks Dude. Yeah, the 92 S and 92 O in particular seem to be very hard to find in anything above VG and problem free.Originally Posted by Morgandude11
They are tough dates, even though the mintage isn't all that low. I think it is that Barbers are very popular, and a lot of the "goodies" have been grabbed up over the years, like Liberty Seated halves.
A fantastic colorfully-toned Proof Jefferson that I bought raw off eBay for $10 about 6 weeks ago. Grade came back from PCGS last week as PR65.

Bought this one last night for $6 what do you think and what kind of grade do you think it can pull?
I like the color on it, and there are a couple clean steps. With that said, I'm guessing somewhere in the AU55 area, there's just too much wear on the high spots to generate a higher grade. I might be way off base, we'll see what the other experts have to say. I like it though!

I actively collect, buy and sell US minted Philippine coins from 1903-1945. I am interested in anything during this period, Albums, Coin sets, Proof sets, collections, original rolls and bags, books, pictures, Cullion Leper colony coins etc...

You should submit that one to Rick Snow at Eagle Eye to get his tag also put on it. That should increase the value even more.

$7 from the 'bay.... plus slabbing cost.
No idea what I was doing on this one. I did check the DD variety and it is the one listed in Redbook.. the expensive one in the Cherry pickers guide.
Paid around 70-80 for it I think.... redbook says 350 in PR65... this one is nicely toned in 64.
Good deal.. or nah... ?
Just one this one off eBay, same seller as before (greatsouthern).
I'm excited!
The strike is really weak, I think even for the 1857 but I LOVE the luster peeking out everywhere.
It was quite a bargain, too!
