DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 06/07/2019 10:27 am I just made an offer on this and was countered by a better offer. Made a down Payment to lock it in. Here's the 3rd coin to my 1905 proof set and now 2nd barber proof quarter. Here's the seller's photos. will up the closeups later when I get some toning pics. Report this Post to the Staff

barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5853 Posts	Posted 06/07/2019 10:36 am I know that is graded at PR66 and I know it has a CAC sticker, but I personally don't care for its eye appeal. Here's the one that I own. It's "only" a PR64, but I think the eye appeal is much better: Expanded Digital U.S. Type Set Album \| Dansco 8100 (Lincon Cents) Album \| Digital Proof Type Set \| Digital U.S. Currency Type Set \| Foreign Bullion Coins Edited by barryg 06/07/2019 10:36 am Report this Post to the Staff

DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 06/07/2019 10:42 am That's nice too. It's actually very nice...but when you're doing a toned proof set like I'm doing, then that would be the red headed step-child in the photo. lol albeit mine is literally the redhead.

DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 06/07/2019 11:12 am I assume he knows Greasy Fingers. However, to each their own. I may need a toning intervention too, but I'm not there yet. 2 toned barber proofs and counting! Edited by DoctorBurnzy 06/07/2019 11:13 am Report this Post to the Staff
barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5853 Posts	Posted 06/07/2019 11:13 am Ah. Obviously, I had no idea that you were specifically collecting toned coins! In that case, here's some other proofs in my collection you might enjoy: Enjoy your new purchase!
