With the addition of a very hard to find albeit not rare 1908-P, my set is at 100% completion. However, I only have 51 of the coins in the XF45 grade with 10 higher and 12 lower. I will need to upgrade/downgrade to get them all at XF45. The set has taken me approx. 5 years to put togther and this is not due to funds. The coins just aren't out there.
I've contacted just about everyone I know who has XF45 Barber Halves on the Registry to see if they would trade. If you have any of the following coins, I would be happy to trade. In fact, I will trade straight across any of my AU pieces for your XF45s as long as they are graded properly and aren't doggy. Correctly graded XF45s in PCGS holders have a certain wear pattern to them. I'm into a variety of colors, toning, dirt etc. The specific wear is more important to me.
These are the coins I need with the respective coin I currently have:
1892-S AU53
1894-O VF25
1895-P XF40
1896-S AU50
1897-O VF25
1897-P AU53
1897-S AU50
1898-O VF35 EX-TYLER CHILD
1900-O AU50
1904-P XF40
1905-P VF20
1905-O XF40
1905-S AU50
1907-P AU53
1908-P F12
1908-D AU50
1909-P VF25
1911-S VF20
1912-P AU50
1914-S VF20
I also have a variety of other dupes and am willing to pay cash for the coins I need. Please PM me with any trades etc. I look forward to hearing from you.
I will get the set TruViewed once it is complete in XF45.
I've "heard" that Q. David Bowers said it was either impossible to put this set togther in XF or he hasn't seen one. Can anyone lend any truth to this statement before I ask the gentleman himself?
Respectfully yours,
Craig
