Message:: [QUOTE="clembo, post: 441331, member: 8033"]As many of you know Treashunt and I tend to agree on these coins. We both have saved a lot of dates BEFORE we knew one another at all. I'll never argue with him on ANY Barber that's for sure. So I'll pop in a few more. Going to stick with more mainstream as there are tons of type coins with lower mintages at good prices. One does have to factor in popularity of the series though. 1931-D Lincoln Cent. As far as that goes (barring the 31-S) any Lincoln through the 33-D. Lower mintages, still readily available in better grades. 1912-D Liberty nickel. Sure, an often times ignored coin, as the mintage is nearly 10 million but one of only two Liberty nickels bearing a mintmark. They have gained in the past few years but still very affordable in VF for under $50. As for Standing Liberties I wholeheartedly agree with the 27 D and S.  I put many 27-S aside and now look for the D. A few more of interest would be the 26D, 26S, 28D, 29D, 29S and 30S.Not astoundingly low numbers but as Treashunt pointed out a series that is more acceptable circulated these days. An MS set costs a fortune. I have also been paying attention to the 1937-S Washington quarter. When I get the chance to sift through junk silver Washingtons at work I always pull any that are G4 or better. They ALWAYS seem to sell fast. I've picked up a few myself. If you can get VF or better start picking those up. I see very few in what we buy as junk. Always keep your eyes on mintages and popularity of series. If you see a lower mintage, fairly popular coin with no problems consider it.It takes time but I've done fairly well with it over the years.[/QUOTE]
