I have seen many of the coins in person and what a treat.

Owning one of the Joshua II set will be a coin to be proud of!

I am not sure a set like that will ever be done again ?

Now the good news I just may move one spot.

Wow - You won't find too many 1916-Ds in the MS67 FB category with that toning!

This is the second time that Joshua has sold a complete mercury set at auction.

It does get less exciting each time although the quality on many of the pieces are excellent.

I have several of his Joshua II PCGS slabbed coins graded MS-67FB which must have been discarded on his way up to a 68FB.

I saw this set on display at the Heritage table at the Long Beach show and it was pretty impressive

I saw the set first hand a few years ago. It was memorable. I recall the 16-D sticking out along with some of the mintmark dates in the 20's. We used to be neighbors before he moved. Never knew it until a dealer put us together.
