I picked up a nice Rainbow toned Barber Dime at the Denver Coin Show

I was able to get over to the show during lunch time on Friday. I had every intention of just picking up a little gold or silver bullion to add to the stack (since there is no tax charged at the coin show). But I stumbled upon this pretty little dime and I couldn't pass it up. I really didn't get much of an opportunity to see the rest of the show in depth. I did see Daniel Carr, who always has some interesting stuff! He had a very cool Denver S0-Called Dollar from 1905 that would fit perfectly into my Denver type collection (some day!).

Did anyone else get over to the show?

Nice dime, what's the grade?

This one resides in a MS63 holder. I guess I can accept that due to some of the scuffing on the neck and cheek.

I owned that dime a couple years ago. Always cool to see coins you used to own move around. Heres my pics of it before i got a decent camera and improved my skills. Yours show how truly pretty it is.

Hey, thanks for the additional info and pics, Rob.

I guess I'll be the next caretaker of it until it is once again passed along!

I made it to the show but only got to stay for an hour or so. Sold some coins but didn't end up buying anything.

Beauty. And small world, huh.

Considering the contact marks on the cheek, neck and above the ONE on the reverse, I think the coin was graded fairly. It's attractively toned. I hope you didn't have to pay an obscene premium for it. It's a nice coin. Congrats on the pick up; attractively toned Barber coinage is tough to find.

By the way, wasn't it an AU-58 when we owned it?

LOL

If so money left on the table again?

I picked it up at the Denver Coin Show from David Carruthers (Grand Gold Coins?) of Reno, NV.
