Newest Addition to my Barber Registry Sets: Update: 05/29/2017

MFH · April 26, 2014 10:32AM

Let's see if I can add images directly from the iPad - which I doubt... ( can't do it... Need to use Photobucket )

1895-O Quarter PCGS 58 CAC - Newp from Central States...

1896-O Quarter PCGS 55 - Also a Newp from Central States

I picked this one up last month - I forgot to post it:
1897-O Quarter - PCGS 55 - San Francisco Sale

1911-S Quarter PCGS 58 - Another Newp from Central States.

to be edited soon.

Nice additions Mike, you'll have your quarter set completed in no time!

Doug

MFH · May 6, 2014 12:23PM

Thanks, Doug.

I also picked up two nice newps from Lenny's Stash... Both PCGS 58's...
( no images yet ) ... 1908-Phila and a 1914-D ... ( no CAC stickers, yet ).

Today, I was able to work a deal with another collector I have dealt
with in the past couple of years... Getting a Type One 1892-O in 58 CAC
as well as a addition of an 1896- Phila in MS 62. I also am getting another
1894-S but this one is CAC'd. A nicer 1905-Phila is also coming my way,
in PCGS 58 CAC.

One more submission of Quarters for CAC ...then it's off to Messydesk for
images. I have 14 Quarters with new CAC stickers that need to be imaged
as well.

MFH · May 8, 2014 1:34PM

Picked up another 16-D Quarter - think its special - looks like it has
mega flash and a WOW factor...

Labelman87 · May 15, 2014 12:23PM

Testing new as I try to figure out how to make these permanent.

Painful???

Labelman87 · May 16, 2014 9:31PM

TEST

OK, no more pain.

MFH · May 16, 2014 10:17PM

LOL, CRAIG. It was great chatting yesterday, and am glad
I was able to help you figure out how to post a permanent
link to your sets in your signature line.

That's why there is a Testing Forum. LOL. No problem, my friend.
Now... show off some new Barbers of yours ( edit your two posts ).

Although I have a dozen or so newps, I don't have images yet.
They need to be sent to the photographer one of these days.

Labelman87 · May 19, 2014 10:50AM

You are a stickler!

Just for that, I give you this!

MFH · May 20, 2014 2:28PM

Craig... Throw that 09-O in your pants pocket for a few weeks and bring it down to a 58 -
then I'll be happy to take my old coin back.

I added this AU 55 to my set today.

MFH · May 20, 2014 2:34PM

Ok, two can play this game - you show me all of my old coins and
I'll show all of your old coins that I sold for you... Even I kick myself
about selling this one....

mercurydimeguy · May 21, 2014 12:00AM

This is a killer coin...makes me want to start collecting Barbers

Labelman87 · May 21, 2014 12:27AM

Michael, Time to get in and buy things like these:

mercurydimeguy · May 21, 2014 12:39AM

Love the 1892 look/color.

I might need to dip my toe in the water... I used to have a handful of Barber Proofs but gave that up a while ago (sold them off), decided I was a Circulation Strike guy (prefer that over Proof).

Be careful of what you ask for as I'll become competition for nice eye appealing coins (although I probably wouldn't collect anything higher than a 64)

MFH · May 28, 2014 1:37PM

I actually beat Labelman87 to an AU 58 CAC Quarter !!

That's a First...

From David Kahn...

I believe this is a Type 3... will confirm once I have the coin in hand.

Labelman87 · May 28, 2014 11:22PM

Newps from Long Beach - 6/2014

MFH · July 2, 2014 1:23AM

Newest addition to the Quarter set... yes, its a Dupe...

PCGS says its an AU 58.....

Edit:

Sent this to CAC - and it passed.

mdwoods · July 2, 2014 8:26AM

Very attractive. What do you think it grades?

MFH · July 2, 2014 10:54PM

I received the 92-O the other day, and I would have graded it
as an AU 55. I think it's a fine line, but I have many other 58's
that are heads above this coin. It's just a very sweet 55+ ...

One of these days, I'd like to get a 55+ .... I just bought another
duplicate at a recent Bowers/Stacks auction ... It's in an AU 53
holder, and looks much nicer, and although I have yet to receive
it ( I just got the invoice this morning - and thank God S/B now
takes PayPal - so it's paid for without coming out of checking ),
I should have it in hand when I get back from Summer FUN.

I like this one a lot more than the other two I own:

MFH · August 15, 2014 6:49AM

Picked this little beauty up last week. No need to travel to Chicago... found this on the BST right here !!

Pretty 1905-O Micro O Barber Dime:

Insert says AU 50 - Looks AU 53+ to me ....

mdwoods · August 16, 2014 8:22AM

That's a pretty dime.

MFH · September 16, 2014 10:15AM

Since I picked up the Micro O Dime last month, I picked up two really choice
coins: an 1892 Proof Nickel -

and a splendid 1913 MS Dime

Last weerk, I found this wonderful 1892 Dime MS 63- with great color:

...also found this 11-S Quarter for a friend's high school son's set:

This is only a VF 20 - but I love the look...

Just last night I found a Quarter in PCGS 58 :

mdwoods · September 18, 2014 5:59AM

Great coins, I love the 05 dime and the proof nickel.

MFH · September 20, 2014 1:05PM

Upgrade for my 1909-P Dime

MFH · September 23, 2014 1:13PM

Just upgraded this date & mint - again - I now have a 53, 55 and this 58

MFH · September 27, 2014 8:18AM

..... Edit....

Removed images of a coin because the deal fell thru....

MFH · October 28, 2014 7:06AM

Newp - 1894-O Dime PCGS 58 -

MFH · October 31, 2014 3:18AM

The Pony Express icon is the logo for Holsonbake Numismatics.

MFH · January 11, 2015 2:22PM

Have not bought a lot as of late ...

Here are two I just picked up [ as upgrades ]

Labelman87 · January 11, 2015 10:00PM

Return of an old friend from year's ago!!!

MFH · January 14, 2015 12:11AM

Very nice 1896-O Craig !!

My old one:

My newest one:

Speaking of newest ones... Here's a coin I just picked up at FUN at Dave Kahn's table......1895-S - PCGS 58....
{ pictures are from the previous owner }

This is a minor upgrade to my AU 55 :

I think you can see why I replaced it...

EastonCollection · January 26, 2015 9:12AM

HI Mike - nice 95 S - I like the others too.

MFH · January 29, 2015 4:34AM

Have not picked up a Half Dollar in ages...

This week, I picked up my old 1898-O - PCGS 64 - Secure Plus:

Also a nice meaty 1895-O Half in AU 53 - from a YN - from my Barber Class at ANA - { Mike}. Valente151

Lastly, an upgrade over my VF 30 - 1913-P Half - Now, in XF 45 - courtesy of { Chris } Manorcourtman

MFH · February 7, 2015 2:07PM

<< <i> This week, I picked up this from Valente151 - who was gracious enough to image it for me:

>>

Here are the professional images - Nice Job Mike !!

I picked up a few hole filler Quarters - as well - 1901-O // 1907-S /// 1914-S ///
All PCGS - Grades range from VG 10 to VF 20 - but - line them up and cover the stickers
and they all look like they are the same frade - all circulated cameo looking !!

Images to follow...

winky · February 26, 2015 9:32PM

I like it.

MFH · February 27, 2015 1:17AM

Picked up a few circulated Quarters .... as I have had zero luck finding AU's...

1901-O
Better image to follow

1907-S
Better image to follow

1914-S

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Found a choice AU 58 - No CAC Sticker Yet
1915-S Quarter -

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I finally found an Overdate that was strong - and IMHO - the real deal - not a RPD 93/93

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I also upgraded my 1913 Half from a choice 30 to this very choice XF 45 ....

I have been assisting a friend with his collection - and have been handling coins I could only dream about....

more to follow....

MFH · March 2, 2015 12:32AM

Upgraded two Dimes last night.....

1895-S in PCGS 62

1898-P in PCGS 64

winky · March 2, 2015 6:44AM

it's a dime day and I am a dime nut, especially Roosie's.

MFH · March 5, 2015 12:49PM

Spotted this and loved the color...

winky · March 6, 2015 10:48PM

Very nice, you should be proud of it.

MFH · March 8, 2015 12:51PM

I can wait years inbetween finding nice toners - this has been a great month !!

Tonight's NEWP.....

MFH · April 2, 2015 12:40AM

A couple of NEWPS from the Stacks Bowers Auction at Baltimore - March, 2015

An upgrade - 1900-O - { Have an XF 45 now... }

... and a duplicate, just because it appealed to me....

winky · April 2, 2015 8:05AM

I love Barber coins, they just have that coin look to me.

MFH · April 12, 2015 5:45AM

MFH · April 18, 2015 5:07AM

Been lookin... Have found a few things....Oh My !! Such nice things too.
Just need my offers to be accepted....then...

Still waiting on my offer.... But on a positive note, I won this coin last night.
The color got to me.

No large REV images...

MFH · April 20, 2015 5:21AM

I certainly did not "need" this coin - but I had to have it because of the colored toning. Thanks again Valente151 for pointing it out to me.
