I spotted a compelling Barber quarter on Tom Bush's website that struck my eye. This is my first purchase from Tom and I've wanted to do business with him for a long time.
I think Tom's pictures are pretty accurate, though it is sometimes tough to capture the luster that really helps this coin's punching power that may not readily be evident on your computer monitor. Additionally, what is really nice about this coin when seen in hand is the very delicately toned green obverse with an overall strike that is 95% complete.

Thanks for the link!
I'm a little surprised no one has purchased that nicely toned 1945 Walker!0 -

I saw this quarter on Tom's site and I still like it. It looks just like a 105 year-old coin should.0

Nice coin.
I like Tom's eye; it suits my preferences. I also like him as a person; he's a good guy with a good sense of things.How does one get a hater to stop hating?

Thank you for the kind words about the coin (and even me!)
As soon as I saw this coin I thought it was just about the nicest MS65 Barber quarter I had ever seen or could ever imagine finding. It is truly wonderful, choice and original. It's nice to see that it has such a good home.

No Mercs.
I guess there is room for improvement for every dealer.
He should aim to find some top pop Merc Varieties!

Great pickup indeed.
What I also like about that coin is that it is not one of the commonly seen dates like 16, 16-d, etc. I bet you don't find too many 1907's with that kind of look.
And for anyone doing a 1907 year set, the 07-d and 07-s are very challenging dates in gem original unc.0 -

I'll echo the sentiments -- Tom B is a great guy, with a superb eye who deals in very nice coins indeed. This is a typical example.0

Great quarter. Not familiar with Tom, but will keep an eye on his site.
