  Was Dr. Duckor’s set the standard by which others are measured?
  I know the Barberites spoke highly of it.

  I saw the Duckor Barber Half Registry Set many years ago. It is the gold standard. Might add that he got two of the nicest coins from Tahoe Dale.

  I don't believe Duckor collected Barber quarters or dimes, only halves (Let me know if I'm mistaken). Pogue's set is a quarter set that is wonderful. I believe he bought this set intact (through Larry Hanks and Richard Burdick) several years ago from an east coast collector, and upgraded where he could (which wasn't much).

  Yes, I was thinking about the halves only, sorry.

  I knew he collected Lincolns...thanks for the help. Did he auction his quarters and dimes?

  The barber quarter collection is our own famous member Sunnywoods collection. Plus a few upgrades as Chris stated.
  Yes, Mr Duckor collected dimes and quarters as well as halves, and had them pedigreed on the holders before sold.
