Post your Barber Images

You're right - it isn't fair - and I sold the darker toned one
to a friend who also bought my duplicate set of Barber Dimes.

rats!


Now I really hate you!


Seriously, what did the overdate go for?

Just wondering.

 

I just checked into my hotel in Orlando -
and I'll be on the FUN bourse all day Saturday.
If I do see one that I think is nice - and is in
a TPG holder without problems - I'll grab the
seller's business card and send you a PM tomorrow evening. That's the best I can do at the moment.

Still hate me ?

 

I mentioned I sold my duplicate Barber Dime set to a friend
[ after it was sent to PCGS for grading.] I cherry picked out
the AU 58's and the MS coins for my better certified set.

Here's the group image: [ page one ]
All missing coins are already in PCGS AU 58 holders.

 

1892 Quarter

That is one beauty of a natural set.

Your friend is very lucky.

And, have a great time at FUN.

Also, no I don't still hate 'cha.

 

i am drooling at all the beautiful barber's in this thread ... wow.

 

Elbesaar I have to say since you joined our Barbers have certainly seemed to have stepped it up
Nice coins all.

 

Glad you liked the raw Dime set.
Those Dimes were in the Dansco
for about sixteen years before I
was coersed in sending them in
to get graded. Most of the grades
were a disappointment - as I wasn't
that adept in grading back then.
I looked at a nice lusterous coin
with faint rub as an AU 58;
the lines I saw, I assumed were
circulation lines. Not.

Quite a few of those beauties were
BB'd at PCGS. I recently dropped
them off at NGC to see how they'll
fare over there.

I left off at 1893:

Here's my 1893-O Dime - PCGS AU 58

 

Was going through my photobucket account and found some pics of a few others I sold last summer:







And one I just sold this last month:

 

Mike - who does your imaging ? Nice work !!

 

I actually took all of those i just posted... thanks

In my registry sets I've taken about 1/2 of them. I just use the Heritage or other auction photos if available instead for the rest of them. will have them all professionally done when I get my 1909 set the way I want it.

I pretty much finished up my 1908-S IHC grading set so I had Todd (BluCC photos) image all of those at one of the recent Long Beach shows and I'm very happy with the results.

If i really work at it I can get a decent photo, but I just have a point and shoot camera so I can only get it good up to a point and it takes too much work! Much easier to pay a few bucks to have it done right and I get a much better end product.

 

Mike - Are you near Sacramento ?

 

No, in SoCal on the L.A./Ventura county line

 

Continuing with 1893...
1893-P - PCGS 58

 

Elbesaar,
That is an amazing coin!

When did you pick that one up?

 

Bought it from Tom Casey in December, 2007.
He was instrumental in helping me complete
my 2nd certified collection.

 

No Barber gold?

 

I only own one of Barber's Gold designs - the 1917 McKinley

 

was the 1894 s barber dime only in a proof? I have a 1894 dime and I swear it has a s on the back. It is very worn and scratched. I'll try to get pictures in the next few days.
