    Well that stinks. I would like to vote, I do have a FB dime set but I have elected not to list it until it becomes a bit more complete. I probably have about 25% complete.

    I have both a full band short merc set and a full band roosie set (46-64) registered, and I didn't get an email. But I would vote "yes."

    Thank you for your participation in our poll last week. The great majority of you voted to add the bonuses for FB dimes. Therefore, both the circulation strikes and mixed U.S. Complete dime sets now give 2 bonus points for full band Mercury and Roosevelt dimes.

    Paul,

    It's OK. I'm going for completion not points anyway.image My goal is to be the first one done (100%) and see if PCGS will display it at a major show.

    Wada ya think of that?image

    I think that is great Dimeman, but the problem with that is when you are 100%, PCGS will display your dimes 1796-1916 Barber, and look for another collection from 1916-Date with Full Bands! imageimageimage

    Wada ya think of that?image

    Boy, that hurt Paul.imageimageimage

    This Full Band thing is always going to come between us.

    First of all, there is no way I could afford to do all the Mercs and Roosey's in FB. Some of those bands cost thousands of dollars extra.

    And second, I go by eye appeal and hair detail. I have seen FB Mercs with flat hair on obv. I would rather have the hair and no bands.

    Sorry, Jon

    PS: I still think this whole FB thing is about prestege AND points of course. Whereas I go by the overall look of the coin. I'm just not caught up in the FB craze. Sorry!image: and NEVER will be.image
  • StoogeStooge Posts: 4,668 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Maybe we can team up with our dimes at the display that PCGS is putting up for us.

    Later, Paul.

    Can I start a new gripe in this thread? How about dumping all FB, FBL, FT designations, and add a FULL STRIKE designation to all coins slabbed??? image

    Great Idea, Drizzt. It would be better than a "*" designation.
