    Thanks. Are you just using a macro or are you photoing through a loop or something else?

  3. It was the seller's photo. You wouldn't want me to take a photo of it. :eek:

    Here are my Barbers, I don't really collect them. An 1899 half in good and a
    V nickel in very fine.

    That would be great. Now i can't wait to get home and check it out
     
  7. Johnvan, I think you are a little tough on your 99 half. I think that coin could go VG8. EPU is a bit weak, but all the other detail looks right.

    Thank you. I don't know much about Barbers, however I do like the Barber dime.
    What would a 1914D in AU to BU go for?---John
     
  9. Well, someone decided to make me pay through the nose for this coin tonight, but it's in strong hands now for a long time. ;)

    Great coins guys.

    You were right about the RPM on the 07-S, I looked at it this morning. That makes the RPM on the 07-S and an inverted MM you guys pointed out previously.

    Log Potato I would mark "like".
    Your note that":eek: some one made you pay more :eek:"is not what I like to hear. from anyone!!!:kewl:.
     
  13. I'm not sour about what I paid for it, just saying that there were two of us that really wanted this coin. That's what auctions are all about. ;)

    We all have to take it on the chin every so often. I could have been outbid
    so easily on the 1913-D in XF 40. It hit my maximum. What I neglected to do
    was an in depth study of what that date & MM sold for recently. I relied on a
    price sheet - my mistake - and it could have cost me dearly. I don't think Log
    Potato meant anything by saying someone pushed him too hard at that auction,
    and as he said - that's what an auction is all about.

    I want to thank LogPotato very much for his altruistic behavior in pointing this
    Barber Half Dollar out to me on eBay - he knew it was something I would throughly
    enjoy - and it is - as I was not too thrilled with my newp of the same date & MM .

    Thanks again, Justin !!

    I had en email in my box this morning from Ebay telling me I won a coin. I had forgotten that my son and I had looked through some coins and put in bids that must have all ended last night - we lost them all but 1. Of course, the 1 that we won was probably the least favorite for me. My son thought it was great looking, I thought it looked like it had been tossed in a fire. Either way, overpaid or not, it'll be here in a few days and I'll take photos of it.

    He loves picking coins out on ebay and putting in bids - although we usually always lose them because I like to have them in my hands before I buy them since they're raw.

    My guess would be about $75 for a certified AU 55 - I paid $97 for a
    fantastic PCGS - AU 58 - four years ago - but I paid for the toning.

    One of these days, I'll figure out this CT system.
    My post above was not meant to be part of the previous quote - and the automated system makes my posts look like a 5 yr old did them...:mad:
     
  19. Well, I couldn't help myself but to upgrade my 11-S again. I swear these things are a sickness. :rolleyes:

    One thing is for certain when I look at this thread; I need to start being more selective with what I buy. I get so excited when I find a coin in the grade range I'm looking for that I never hold out for examples like the ones you guys are posting. I think I'm officially getting away from the raw coins and just buying holdered coins, even if we break them out for the album.
