<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Treashunt, post: 170033, member: 6763&quot;]I was able to attend two different coin shows this weekend, one in Westchester, NY and one on Long Island.</p><p><br /></p><p>Each was a successful trip.</p><p>In Westchester, I was able to get a very nice (obviously I am prejudiced, I bought the coin) 1895 S, Barber Dime certified by PCGS as VF-35. It is the best of that date that I have ever been able to find.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the Long Island show I couldn&#039;t believe it, but I was able to get an 1897 -O Barber half, in XF-40! My previous best as only a VG-8. In trends it is tied as the key date in that condition with the 1904 S, both have the same value.</p><p>&nbsp; I couldn&#039;t believe tht I was able to get it under bid!&nbsp; The coin looks original, I had it checked by two guys that I trust. Both stated that it had a v-e-r-y old cleaning, and would still be able to be slabbed.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;And, it is the best date, except for the 1892 O micro O, which would have cost me an arm and a leg.</p><p>&nbsp;So, I will not own it (the 1892 O micro) unless I can cherrypick it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
