Its a sad day in Barberville...another set is deleted

I have collected Barber coins for more years than I care to mention, and have been involved with the Registry for about three or four years. During these past few years I have seen the formation of many fine sets in a wide array of grades. It saddened me when I saw Andy G's set got broken up, and now, Gary Hultman has removed his set from the Registry as well.

Hope all is well Gary.

    Two sets huh? Gary's were high end XF and AU coins weren't they? What about Andy's? What grade did he collect in?

    I would assume the coins are hitting the market?
  • If there was ever a thought on when to break up your circulated Barber half set...........now's the perfect time. Nice, certified VF and XF Barber halves are bringing in AU type money and the skies the limit on the better date, PCGS certified, choice and original Barber halves in the higher circulated grades.

    I already have over 40+ XF45s. The market is going to dry up soon. So sell me all your XF45s I need.

    I'm saddened as well by Gary selling off his set. I admired how he wanted a coin that only had less then 100 above it in the pops. A rather intersting challenge. He was quite kind to me in the past with trades and offering me his XF45s I needed when he bought a better coin.

    Best of luck to you Gary, and once again, Thank you so much for the 1907-S, 1909-O, 1913-P and 1904-S.

    Respectfully yours,

    Today, I was lucky enough to win one of Gary's coins on Ebay.
