Elbesaar,

Tremendous popcorn arrangement

That '14-D mint off-center error is awesome. I wonder what kind of premium this would bring.

Also, if it were me, I would never feel bad about uploading 30 separate posts instead of just one since each one of your photos takes much time and effort to accomplish correctly. Plus, displaying multiple coins concurrently within a single post is more of a need for side-by-side comparisons shots...

Now that is only a friendly suggestion if you want to become a 'Pillar of the Community' faster.

thanks, Paul for the comments.

The date - 1898 - is one of my favorites.

I sold this coin a year ago - it was fun to have - but not a wise investment [ understatement ].

Bought this because you never find 09-S's in AU
The-25-Days-Of-Barber-Coins!!


I was the underbidder on this coin three years ago - I
lost out on getting it then by only $50.00 bid. Once I
realized this was the same coin - I rebid the same amount
that I had bid before - { too much, honestly } - but with
the new 17.5% Buyers Fees figured in - I paid the same
amount as it sold for back then.

As they say...you can't take it with you.

At Summer FUN, I stopped at JJ Teaparty's table to see my old friend, Liz Coggan.

She had just bought this 1905 Quarter - NGC 58.
I cracked it out and sent it to PCGS - where it came back
as an AU 58 as well. I then sent it to CAC - and it Green
Beaned !!

Here's the True View of the 1896-O I crossed from NGC 58 to PCGS 58.

My current example of the 1896-O in PC 55 was snapped up soon there after.

It is a lot to take in at one time. I recommend a steady pace and exercising caution.

It is preferable, but not mandatory, to split multiple photos into multiple posts. The reason is that it makes page loads faster (and easier for people on slower connections).

It also makes scrolling easier.

Each page is limited to fifteen posts, so in theory separating images would have fifteen images per page. One can see how large a page would become if all fifteen posts had twenty or so images in them. That being said, I will not complain as long as there is only one or two "monster photo" posts per page.

Sorry for jamming up the system.

For those who appreciate [ and collect ] higher end Halves,
my good friend Peter Shireman and his wife are selling their
# 1 Barber Half Collection at Tampa FUN. { Jan. 2016 }

Their set is too far above mine - even my better coins
do not hold a candle to the lowest end coins in their set.

But, I will be there a few days before the auction - browsing
the auction lots - and meeting Peter and his wife later with a
few other Barber collectors for a "meet and greet" ...


details to follow if any one is interested....



One of my favorite coins - not the most expensive - in his set:

I was thinking of joining the Barber Collectors society, since barbers are my favorite design.. They had a representative at the Fort Lauderdale coin show this past weekend.
