savitale - Imagine the story those dimes could tell. Nice examples, BTW. Welcome to the Seated thread.
Had a great time at the Baltimore Show these past couple of days. My friend Paesan was there and picked up a couple of nice additions to his Stash. I'll have pics in the next couple of days. In the meantime, here's one already in his Stash, PC40:
Vern l It's not having what you want, it's wanting what you've got.
is that a proof? or a really really really spectacular MS?
PCGS PR64+CAM. I used to have the OGH PR65, and this coin buries that one.
That's a beautiful coin. I started working on a set of proof seated quarters this year. They're pretty elusive when you're looking for ones with pretty rainbow toning.
Been awhile since I visited this thread so I had a lot to catch up on. I was saddened by seeing MFH posts and being reminded he's no longer with us. Bummer!

@barberkeys, Nice 1861 quarter. I found one of these in a 90% junk lot once and it helped to reignite my interest in collecting. That one was around F12. I recent picked up this one in a GC auction. It's OK, but I'd sure like to own a nice, lustrous MS coin.
Saw this thread pop to the top...and figured it might be a good "small coin" test for my budding photography skills.

I don't HATE the image....but I'm not sure I love it either. (And blowing it up this large, I'm not 100% certain there isn't a PVC issue too!)

JBN - What a beauty. Thanks for posting.

If I'm not mistaken, I saw that same 1871-cc in a PCGS VF35 holder at some point. Lots of meat on it!
Ron - Could be. Jim D, do you know?

Not a lot of love for the double dimes here, so here's my new 1876 BF-4, the first one identified in proof.
A little fresh meat...

They're wonderful coins, but finding examples from the 1840s and 1850s with reasonably attractive color is virtually impossible.
