You'll have a tough time as well locating a nice 1905-O. I was offered one in VF 25 - completely out of the blue a few months ago - which prompted...
Elizabeth Taylor was right - the prices of Butter and Diamonds have gone up. I was slammed the other night on an 1893-S Half in PCGS 12 - I bid...
Justin, Nice pick up's !! Love the look of all three.
Just saw this Thread. Otherwise I would have commented sooner. The eBay coin is a nice coin and the OBV is actually a finer grade than its REV. I...
No, no idea of who had it engraved or why. My Grandfather got it in change back in the 1930's or so - and because it was unusual, decided to keep...
My Grandfather plucked this one out of circulation... [IMG]
I also love Seated coins - I have a few - nothing elaborate, I assure you. My pocket piece: [IMG]
Thanks, Justin. If that sticker wasn't on the coin, I might not have looked twice at the coin as I just this past two weeks bought the Ty 1 in...
Collector1966 - I thought we were discussing Barbers - and more specifically, Barber Quarters. I collect SLQ's as well. I like AU 55's and 58's -...
Correct !! I had forgotten about the Type 1 & 2 until the auction on eBay - and as I had just bought a Type 1 in Pittsburgh, I knew I should...
Justin and Treashunt - correct !! [IMG]
Sorry, that's not it either. Nor is it a Large S and Small S... both good guesses.
I would have bought it - and the premium between an AU 58 and a MS 62 is minimal - because you can't find AU 58's. I started my collection with...
Nice try - but that's not the reason.
I posed this question ATS @ PCGS - so - I'll pose it here as well. While at the ANA Pittsburgh, I bought a nice example of my favorite date in...
Thanks, Jello. I have been searching for some 1917 Buffalo Errors as well... anyone ever see an O/C - Mid to High Grade ??
Picked this up in Chicago at the Penny Lady's table... its my Dad's birthyear... [IMG]
My Dad was born in 1917 and although I have error cents from P, D & S already, I came upon this O/C 1917-S Cent - which is the widest O/C of the...
I have looked at every 1896-S in high grade that has come on the market in 20 years; if there was a chance of an AU 58 being in any TPG's MS 62...
I picked up some Barber Halves in old ANACS small cachets the other day - nothing earth-shattering - but some nice VF's: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
