<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MIGuy, post: 24855709, member: 116145&quot;]I&#039;ve been very lucky with my SLQ collection - and since the kids are grown up, I have more money for collecting.&nbsp; I&#039;ve been trying to move all of my SLQ top set into AU / MS slabbed &amp; graded coins - except my 1916 (found in the wild) which is Fair 2, Damaged Details and my 1918/17-S overdate (VF Details - hole in the face) - I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll ever be able to afford those in AU or MS.&nbsp; The toughest ones in AU/MS for many collectors, myself included, other than those two, are the very low mintage 1927-S (396,000 - mine is VF 20), 1923-S (1,360,000 - mine is VF30, Details), the 1921 (1,916,000 - I&#039;m upgrading from a VF20 Green CAC bean) and 1919-D (1,944,000 - F12) &amp; 1919-S (1,836,000 - VF20).&nbsp; Everything else is now straight graded AU or MS, with 4 Full Head designations.&nbsp;&nbsp; The lower mintage SLQs after 1925 have the &quot;protected&quot; date from a redesign (rather than the earlier protruding date that wore off and they seem more common &amp; cheaper in higher grades.&nbsp; In any case - I won the auction on this last night for $800 ($960 with Buyers premium), and I&#039;m very excited to get my hands on it.&nbsp; I think it&#039;s fairly graded but would welcome any input.&nbsp; Happy Holidays!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1593395[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1593396[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1593397[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1593398[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
