(Whoops - that Psycho)
This one made my heart beat a bit faster - is that like being psyched??

imho the Jeff is a lock 68 CAM.
I was really happy with this one ...
I also bought an awesome AU58 (62/3?) 1933s WLH about the same time, but I haven't shot her with the new camera yet

I'm getting a shipment in of 4 coins. I went into the office today expecting them to arrive only to find out that they won't come in until tomorrow.
I did, though, get 2 weeks of mail which included a couple of auction catalogs and some blue and grey sheets which I enjoy perusing.
I also got a few coins from a buddy of mine (the fellow who sells coins of mine under anaconda.rare.coins.ii)....a walker in 66, a pattern in 64, a toned commem and something else which I can't remember.
Also, since you guys aren't into currency, I might be getting a really cool piece of currency in which is the first piece of something - a really popular type note to be graded in 68.
So, we all are in the same boat......when is the next deal gonna happen!
Nice tough date SLQ with a decent head for the date. When are you going to sell me your icon coin?
Nothing really special about the coin itself - a nice boderline XF/AU for the price of VF - Nice die clash too
Also upgraded the type set with an AU Bust Half Dime

Not sure about NGC but PCGS and ANACS have treated the few that I have had holdered nicely
I have seen a few bent ones in dealers showcases though - they do not hold up well to rough handling
My icon isn't mine ... you'll have to talk to Jon about that one ... I borrowed it and am never home when they do the uploads. I do have one for you though, but we can talk about that later (if I decide to sell her)
Glad to see you're posting again ...

Looking for PCGS AU58 Washington's, 32-63.
The coin looks fairly mark free with the exception of a few scuffs off to the left on the obverse. I can't get a handle on the luster. I'd say MS 63 but again, it's hard to tell from the images.
Thank you. The obverse photo is my current desktop on my computer. I can't wait for it to arrive.

I liked it so much, I broke it out of the PCGS holder and pushed it into a hole in my album

That`s a heck of a Barber quarter!

I've wanted one for about ten years and have only reciently put myself into a possition where I could own one without having to make sacrifices elsewhere in my collection. It's a super nice example. I'd rank my happyness in owning this coin on par with the purchase of my first MS 09-SVDB. ...and that's saying a lot!

decided to place a pretty high proxy before i went to the beach party.
3 bidders bid it up while I drank beer and played volleyball;
got home, not expecting to have won it, was pleasantly surprised to still be on top.
seller's photos; coin looks better in hand and even better than that without the plastic
thanks ccr and PofL

Always wanted a proof gold coin. Kinda cool to have one that is from before the Civil War.
1. An 1880 S PL Morgan, MS 63-64 which is the first coin to take up residence in my U.S Type Set Dansco album;
2. A 1964 DCAM Proof Kennedy, PF 68, which I found in an original proof set and which is also sitting in my U.S. Type Set Album; and
3. A 1954 DCAM Proof Frankie, PF 67, which I picked up in a Capital Holder at the June Long Beach show and which is sitting in my 1950-1963 set of CAM Proof Frankies.
From the ANA. This has been submitted to PCGS for grading (I think that it is a genuine proof, 1 of only 103 struck):
