Grades Posted. 2 New Purchases. Finally over 60 Percent.....2nd Batch Done 12/13 Update

Been working on this 185 coin set for almost 4 Years and just went over 60 percent. The Varieties in this set is was attracted me to try building this set. I only need 71 more. First coin was recently Purchased from @tomb off the BST.

I really like this coin and like tom I do not need to send this holder back for a Upgrade as I have no plans on being number 1 in the Registry and I like these Old Green Holders. He also gave me permission to use his pictures and insisted on me not sending a check until I approved the coin. Class Act..........

Next coin was purchased off Ebay as I start to add Regular Coins.

Now we go to the coins I sent our host. First up is a New Top Pop Variety. The 1943 S RPM 504 ties 2 other coins for this spot and total population is now 7. I picked up this coin in a Unattributed Holder off Ebay.

Next one is the 1946 D/D and have been looking for over a year to find one of these Raw. Came back a MS 64. Population of 7

Enjoy Tom

Nice looking Washington Quarters. When I go to build a set, this is probably the set I will start with. I used to think they were boring and bland, but after photographing so many, I've really come like them. Plus as you said, the number of varieties is very high and makes cherrypicking a lot of fun.

Nice looking Washingtons. This is another great thing about coin collecting. Each person can have there own interest and really enjoy it.

Just wanted to thank everyone for the nice comments. Mike I will never forget the phone call from you at the fun show. I still have that coin in my collection.

These grades just popped last night with the true views and a little disappointed in the grade on the 1951 d/d. The search will continue.......First up is my second 1946 d/d and this one tied the one from last week MS 64.

Second one up is the 1949 d/d 501 This coin upgrades the MS 64 I had...MS 65

Last coin is the 1951 d/d I have been looking for a example over a year and thought this was MS but our host said AU 58

Down to 70 coins left. Enjoy Tom
