<p>[QUOTE="Artillery87, post: 24488144, member: 137755"]Hello everyone, hope all is doing well in the hobby. I have been working on this for a while now... I was on a mission to put together a nice set of 1883 hawaii silver coins. The dollar and dime were the toughest of all. The half dollar was a challenge for me (financially lol). The quarter is easily found in higher grades reasonably priced but I didn't want the quarter to be leaps and bounds better than the other coins. The dollar is way out of my price range in mint state so I had to settle with an unc details coin but it is awesome and perhaps my favorite. The dime is an MS-61 but in my opinion I think ngc was generous with the grade, I think it could have been an AU coin. I wanted one a little nicer (a better 61 or a 62) but they are so hard to find I was happy to have one technically MS. The half dollar is a 63 CAC and the quarter is a 63. All in all I am very satisfied with this set of coins overall and just thought I would share with everyone![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
