Hey guys I would really like to thank everyone that helped me make up my mind as to whether or not to sell my lower grade barbers . Also those that helped guide me threw the process of doing so on eBay . Thanks to the folks here on CT I sold 51 of the worn,common barbers I had and was able to purchase the coin I've been watching the past week . I'm very excited to receive this coin it will be the first MS barber dime in my collection. This coin doesn't have the prettiest rainbow tone but it really caught my eye. So I just had to share it. Thanks everyone.
I believe I will keep it for now. The rainbow tone on this dime is so ugly but yet beautiful at the same time. I've had the 99s in AU and 99o in Vf both ngc for a while now and have been looking to get a nice 99p . I really have no idea if I got a decent price on this. It's the first slabbed ms barber dime I've purchased. Past sales of same date ,grade have been from 150-230 . So if I got this coin under 140 did I do ok ?
You did great!!! Just think of it as an even swap for the AG-G stuff.. I think once it's in hand, you'll love it and won't want to part with it. Very wise move in my opinion.
@jtlee321 you know that was the way I saw it . That I more or less traded the roll of average circ dimes for this coin. I had a lot of help from the members here and you are one of them. I really do appreciate it . I can't wait for the coin to arrive . Everyone may not like the toning on it . It is a bit of an ugly rainbow tone but I really love it .
I like it. The toning gives it some character. I would not call that ugly toning. I've seen some ugly toning. Now this is ugly toning...
The toning is why I purchased the coin I came across it a week or so ago and had been watching it . It never crossed my mind that I'd be able to buy it as I expected it to sell a lot higher than it did. I love the coin I just referred to it as an ugly rainbow color vs the less dirty looking rainbow toned coins . It does give it character I believe that what caught my eye. It should look even better in hand. Thanks to everyone being supportive I was able to get it and I am indeed grateful.
