    1899 one is in really good shape. Could that grade go xf? CM190104-175453013.jpg CM190104-175543014.jpg 1608.jpeg 1606.jpeg 1602.jpeg 1604.jpeg 1911 can go for fine condition.

    That's a handsome 1899. It might barely squeak by as XF40 for some, though I'm more of the VF30-35 opinion, personally. Regardless, it has a nice original appearance.

    I agree with VG8 on the 1911.

    Here are the PCGS/Photograde standards. Scroll left for the circulated grades.

    I also think the 1899 looks more like a VF. Regardless, it’s a nice example!

    I even like the look of the 1911. A couple keepers if you’re putting together a circulated set.

    I think the 1899 is a VF30. These are really nice samples and your learning and passion in numismatics is inspiring.

    The Barber design doesn't get a lot of love from the numismatic community but they were a very well-executed design from a technical standpoint - they wore well and retained detail much longer than many other "prettier" designs.

    I need one more dime in my Barber dime Dansco...

    Aside from detector finds, I own exactly one Barber dime.

    I love doing this. I had to get myself into a hobby. There is still so much to learn that it will never get boring and it keeps me occupied.

    Shrews ...you and a very "few" others YN's here on CT are a breath of fresh air!
    IMHO as a collector for over 50 years...I see way to many who want to be a part of this hobby but lack the passion and drive to learn . I have posted many times here if you don't like history, Don't like to read and learn,research the subject..you're in the wrong hobby!
    Now don't let this go to your head...as your mannors ,drive ,and passion is what members as myself who have been collecting for years love to see.
    Your respect and willingness to learn is why many members have taken a liking to you.!
    Again stay as you are.... and focused on what drives you....be open to learn,and most of all enjoy what you do.
    There's no reason why a young lady of your age couldn't make a living in this hobby.
    We need more women in this hobby.... especially those that show the passion that you do.

    How true. And you might make a few bucks with this hobby. Certainly better than most.
