It was a VERY GOOD YEAR

...which brings us back to 1933 and 1965, right?

All hail the flowing hair period!

​

 

Take that Barber POS out of the "Beauty" Era and put it back in the 1890's.

Barber can't hold a candle in the wind against James B. Longacre, Saint-Gaudens, George T. Morgan, Anthony de Francisci (his hottie wife's on the Peace dollar), the Flowing Hair era, etc.


Did ya guess I'm not a Barber fan?

 

Flash from the past....

I miss Lehigh.

 

What happened to Lehigh?

 

A great thread worthy of resurrection.

 

I'd take the 1916 era. It brings my two favorite designs (Mercury, Standing Liberty) onto the scene. However, I can't figure out how to vote.

 

Nice poll. It's a tough choice.

#1: 1804 Draped Bust Era
#2: 1916 Era
#3: 1795 Flowing Hair era
#4: '36 Proof sets

 

He's back

Probably because Paul started this thread in 2008 .

 

I miss Mike, he hasn't posted in over 6 months.

 

Over 10 months, but yes, I enjoyed his comments also.

 

Yep he was one of the good ones , hope he comes back like you did Paul .

 

Hi Rusty!

 

I don't think he is posting on any of the boards.

 

Is he okay, or did he just loose the loving feeling?

 

Well its 2014. Looks like most the crew from this thread is still here.

I like being able to read a post I made 6 years ago and still be able to agree with myself. . Good thread to resurrect.

Sorry for the insolent, off the cuff reply, but it just popped into my head when I read the title. Something from my youth.........

 

I don't know. After many years I got the chance to talk with him a year or so ago at the Fun show. Wish we had several hours to talk. The guy really knows coins.
Doug may know something.

 

Although I like 1916's, my favorite coins are still those from the Flowing Hair Era.
