[QUOTE="Treashunt, post: 507787, member: 6763"]I have to agree with both of you. The AU's are often much more attractive than low end uncs. [Jim: thanks for remembering me]. Just try to put together any set of Barbers in VF+! [dimes, quarters & half dollars.] Sure they are available, but at a heck of a price and you will spend years looking for some pieces, and not just the rare ones. [Note: I ignored the key dates in both sets.] I just got a 1902 S Dime in XF+ to replace my VF that I got in 2001. The first up grade in ages! In Barber Q I need to upgrade: 1894 O (G-6 is my best) ugh. 1893 S F-15 1896 O VG 1897 O VG 1897 S VG-F 99S F 05 O VG 05 S VF 07 S VF 11 S F 12 S F (slabbed VF). And remember, I have been searching local shows (and the infrequent major show) for ages. In the half dollars: Forget it. It will be infrequent that you are able to find a VF. My last one was a 1913 S VF-30, PCGS, and this is a very scarce date (604,000) the price still hurts.[/QUOTE]
