Gyrene7483 Pillar of the Community United States 1704 Posts	Posted 03/10/2015 01:29 am I received the last piece for my type set of Liberty Seated half dimes today and TBone asked if I had where the entire set can be seen. I have a digital album at PCGS but it does not include any NGC graded coins so here it is. Obverses: No Stars 1837-38 1837 Large date PCGS AU-50 Stars, No Drapery 1838-40 1838 PCGS AU-50 Stars with Drapery 1840-53 1850 PCGS MS-64 CAC Arrows at Date 1853-55 1854 PCGS AU-50 Stars with Drapery, reduced weight 1856-59 1857 PCGS AU-58 Hollow Stars 1859 one year sub type 1859 PCGS MS-64 CAC Legend obverse 1860-73 1861 PCGS MS-63+ Reverses: Legend reverse Type I 1837-40 1839 PCGS AU-58 Legend reverse Type II 1840-59 1842 NGC AU-58 CAC No Legend reverse 1860-73 1872 PCGS AU-55 Branch Mints: New Orleans Mint, Legend reverse 1855-O PCGS AU-55 New Orleans Mint, Legend obverse 1860-O PCGS MS-64 San Francisco Mint 1872-S PCGS MS-64 CAC Well there they are. Two more Liberty Seated dimes and the type set of those will be complete. I have a complete set of 20 cent pieces so that denomination is finished. Of the Liberty Seated quarters I have nine of the fifteen required. Edited by Gyrene7483 03/10/2015 03:15 am Report this Post to the Staff

Tbone Pillar of the Community United States 1839 Posts	Posted 03/10/2015 01:42 am Awesome group. Hard to say which I like the most. the 1857 looks like it might have some interesting color and of course your last piece, the 1839, well that coin is super nice. Can't wait to see your dimes Report this Post to the Staff

Nickel Guy Pillar of the Community United States 604 Posts	Posted 03/10/2015 02:26 am Speechless All I could do was scroll up and down my screen looking at those gems. A favorite...yea right! Kind of like asking a four year old to pick out only one candy bar from the entire aisle. I do agree though, that last one you picked up (1839) is a beauty. I was a little surprised PCGS graded it AU. Looks more MS to me from the photos. Report this Post to the Staff
Gyrene7483 Pillar of the Community United States 1704 Posts	Posted 03/10/2015 03:11 am New pictures of the 1842 have replaced the ones uploaded earlier. It is a nicely toned coin that the other pictures did not show. Quote: A favorite...yea right! Kind of like asking a four year old to pick out only one candy bar from the entire aisle. I spend a lot of time looking for just the right coin to fill a slot in my type set so I really do not have a favorite. They are all special in their own way. Thanks for the compliments.

giorgio11 Valued Member United States 406 Posts	Posted 03/10/2015 09:03 am Bravo, very nicely done and congratulations! Did you contemplate buying an example of the Transitional Half Dime or did you just conclude it was a pattern? Lovely set of coins! Best Regards, George Report this Post to the Staff
