[QUOTE="clembo, post: 524254, member: 8033"]As many of you here know Treashunt (the other Frank) has a few Barber coins. Well Frank, I'm afraid this one is going into the clembo hoard. ;) [url]http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x275/clembo1872/scan0015-6.jpg[/url] [url]http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x275/clembo1872/scan0016-4.jpg[/url] WooHoo! Another 1914-S. Puts my little hoard up to 14 examples now - 26 more for the roll! For those not real familiar with the series this is a tough (and under rated IMHO) coin. Only 264,000 minted. Same mintage as a 1916-D Mercury dime actually. A regular customer brought it in yesterday with a few other coins to do some bartering. I got a look before the boss did and told the customer it would most likely find a good home in my house. So the boss ends up with it while I was busy with another customer. Later he asks if I had seen it. Duhhhh! He never has any because I buy them. I tell him I'm interested in it. He gives me a price UNDER bid which surprised me and I tell him I'll get it today. THEN he wonders if he has any in inventory for sale should a customer want one. THAT'S when I tell him no. His reponse? "I should have charged you more". Still he honored the price quoted and this baby is now mine.[/QUOTE]
