Message:: [QUOTE="Elbesaar, post: 932427, member: 26007"]The title still goes to my friend, Ron at NGC Registry - that's his "handle"and mine is "Elbesaar". There is one set of Halves at NGC owned by YeOldeOne - which put both Ron and my sets to shame. He has just listedhis #1 NGC set at PCGS and because of the quantity of NGC coins, he'sonly in the top ten at PCGS. His set rivals the # 1 set at PCGS             [ Dr. Duckor's Set of Halves ] but PCGS won't allow any coin in their Registry with it being a PCGS coin. NGC accepts both NGC & PCGS coins. Dr. Duckor's set is at auction in Boston this August at the ANA; I'll be there along with all the other Barber collectors - Shireman, Duckor, Friend, Holsonbake and Appel; I hope that YeOldeOne shows up too - I'd love to meet him.  Another friend from Virginia / "Chuck" - [who collects Proof Barbers and has a three sets going in all denominations] - will be there if possible. My good friend Dr. Soles / "UMakEm" introduced this proof collector to me last year and I was blown away by the quantity and quality of the coins in my presence. Lets put it this way, an executive from Heritage hand delivers this collectors winnings. No joke ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its always fun to discuss Barbers [ at least to me...] Here are a few from my 2nd Half set - 1892-P-O-S - All PCGS: P=XF 40; O= AU 50; S = XF 45I'll post these later.[/QUOTE]
