I initially bid on the soft side since this would be my first coin in the set I want to pursue but ended up being outbid. I then viewed the auction archives and seen that not many nicely toned Barbers come up for auction very often, besides the dime series. So in the last moments, I set myself a limit and apparently it was just enough to win. If he's happy, I hope I am too once it arrives.

<< <i>Nice looking coin. Are you working on a full date/mintmark set? Or a type set? Or just bought it for the toning? >>
I would like to pursue a full date/MM set in AU58, biggest bang for the buck IMO.
Looks like a nice coin.
