That 07-O's skin is just lovely. Plenty of luster with golden hints protected in the devices. Really a stunning coin and an exceptional strike for the date. 07-O's are notorious for terrible strikes. An unexpected newp, and an elusive date for me over the last half decade.

Very nice! I like the tone on that one, too.

I realized I needed reading glasses when I hit 40...my boss called me the Blind Kid. It happens to the best of us, Justin !

It does. If you need readers (or multi-focal glasses), do not hesitate. I waited too long and suffered headaches from my stubbornness.

Added this Proof Nickel this evening - I actually got it for $150 under my MAX.   It looks very clean for PR 65 - looks 66+ to me ! Regardless - its a nice addition to the Proof set.

My YN Photographer - recent college Grad - who took my course in the Coinage of Charles Barber at the ANA a few years ago - has had a chance of editing some images he took for me last Memorial Day - they are Gratis - so, I couldn't say too much.... Here is a newer Dime - purchased May 2015 - to May 2016  ... and another ....  Merry Christmas....Happy New Year

 This 10-S is fully proof like - loads of Die Polish !! Its also the first and only Barber dime that I have ever seen with P/L conditions.    more later - I don't want to jam up the Thread...

My photographer mentioned that he took triplicate images of my Proof Dimes... Here's the 1894.... yes, there is no S !!  This is a bit too bright - no contrast for shading:  This isn't too bad ...  I like the contrast best on this one...  Thumb print is barely noticeable in hand...
