    Fugio, Congrats and welcome to the wonderful world of Barber Quarters!

    Fot today though, here's an upgrade to my very first coin passion, the Washington Quarters. PC 66+ and CAC...


    PCGS #43260801 with True View. I bought that coin raw Lenny from a Central Midwest coin dealer. Nice coin.

    Sometime ago had acquired a raw 1858 penny (obverse picture below) which is "supposedly" a brothel token and posting the NSFW image of the reverse here may not be appropriate. o:)

    Hey, a Mujer piece. Did they just release a bunch from the Denver Mint?

    Sometimes you get returns that are tough to understand ... where you might ask for reasons "why?" Even in hand, I honestly didn't get "cleaned" in this case. I also felt this is AU58 not Unc. I need to take a refresher grading course I guess.

    I like that 1862 IHC :)

  • paesanpaesan Posts: 1,555 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Could this be struck thru grease too? Where's the O? And it CAC'd as such!

    I have an 02-S half in a 02-P holder that is CAC stickered as well. I guess CAC doesn't check the accuracy of the insert. :wink:

    Edit to add:

    CAC really doesn't care about the holder Lenny... interesting thought. They aren't considering the holdered grade 'suspect' with the wrong label? They didn't pick up that the O-mintmark is missing? and stickered anyway? Interesting revelation.

    I guess they sticker the "coin" and not the slab!
    Here are two MS-64RD Lincolns, the 1910 is CAC, the 10-S was rejected....

    Beautiful coins!

    A tiny nit to pick: batting .1000 is one for ten. Ten for ten is batting 1.000.

    Sorry, but as an engineer, I need to nitpick back at ya. 3 out of 3 is also batting .1000!

    Sorry, but as an engineer, I need to humble myself from your nitpick. 3 out of 3 is batting 1.000! (when I get the decimal in the right place)

    Nope. :) .1000 is, whether you're an engineer, mathematician or baseball player, succeeding one-tenth of the time. 3 out of 3 is 1.000. Cuz it is. :)

    As stated, my fault in the decimal place not correct. Typo. Thanks.

    I am bringing the completed (other than a '77) set of Indian Head Cents to FUN. You might have to check out Liz Coggan's table early to see them.

    Out of this set, this 1894 is the most incredible '94 I have ever seen. Maybe the best Indian Cent I have ever seen. Can't wait to find out what our hosts think:


    I will be spending a lot of time at the BCCS table when I get there.
