Well, I was just giving my opinion, which is the definition of chat sites. People can make up their own minds and have their own desires concerning what they want to collect. I, personally, am somewhat of a purist when I think about the definition of a true variety. Good luck on your collecting endeavors.

All a good fun debate and I have long ago stopped taking anything in life personally. I would say though by calling yourself a "purist" and speaking of "true varieties" you are making a bit of a nasty backhanded slam. And the "good luck" does seem a wee bit condescending. All forgiven though!

Smallcentguy, does that mean that you will be releasing the Heritage Auction 1929 High 9 PCGS MS65 BN back into the wild?   |

Sorry for misunderstanding Okie.....email/texting can often be misconstrued.
Cdn Varieties....I have no plans to sell any right now. Maybe once I know what grade this one makes. Realistically that would be in the summer. My gut though is that I will be selling my third one first....its MS64RB.

The thought of trying to monopolize these in high grade has crossed my mind. But.....not for me. Here are better photos of the new toy. The obverse is full red. the darkness is just a shadow.   |

Terrific coin. I wonder though, if this many high mint state examples exist, how scarce can they really be? With an overall 1929 mintage of over 12 million, I would be skeptical that demand will rise to the point that supply will ever be truly tight. But then, I guess time has shown the 1926 far 6 five cents apparently came from a lightly used die, so who knows. I have never studied either series, but it would worry me a little, if I were thinking of collecting these.
Again, great coin. I particularly like the strong strike.

Of course, the thrill of the hunt is what drives me, I am always looking for upgrades, but I only want one, but the finest one...

I pulled this one from a Whitman folder on Sunday. Had to remove some grime to fully see the 9. Looks like a high 9 to me, yes? Gene  |

Looks like the third one would be super high 9 designation.
