Beautiful examples! It is good to see another participant as well.

Take your time, we are not going anywhere.

Elbesaar,
Do you by any chance have a 1909-O
quarter in AU? The BCCS had a survey back in 2006 and it was
specifically
asking this question, as it appeared
to be quite rare. However, the survey
uncovered several examples.
Still, it remains quite elusive.

Matthew, I wish I had a 1909-O Quarter in any grade above VF 35.
I once owned a raw AU 58 - sent it to ANACS back in 1995 - and it
came back UNC Details - Cleaned. NET : AU

When I bought a MS 64 back in 1996, I ended up selling the ANACS
coin. In 2011, I sold off my 1st Barber quarter collection and over the
last year or so, I have started another AU+ set. A few MS toners but
most coins are 53-58.

In 2012, I flew to Atlanta to pick up a consignment of Quarters, which contained
a coin I had followed for ten years. It was now in a PCGS 55 Holder but had a
GOLD CAC sticker. I had chased images that were juiced. The coin was nothing like
the images. I ended up selling that Gold CAC coin to another Florida collector, who
has since sent the 55 Gold CAC back to PCGS for regrade, and it's currently in a
PCGS 58 holder.

I seriously doubt I'll ever get another coin that will work in this set. There
is another 09-O coming up for auction, at Central States, it's one of the
three available from PCGS, and it's an AU 58. Believe you, me, it'll be a whole
lot cheaper to pick up a MS 62-63-64.

Good luck to all who search for one of these coins.
