    Great mint marked dates. Especially that 1894-O in XF 45.

    I've got a question for you. Are all the bright and shiny dimes considered dipped?

    Beautiful. Hey, what's that XF doing there? :D
    No seriously, good luck on furthering them. :)

    I think more than 90% of Barbers in better grades have been dipped at some time in their existence. So long as they avoided the brush they recovered just fine!

    The only one that I can see that MAY have been dipped is the '94 O

    Well...either a great start, or a great set if not continuing. A third choice, good luck if you decide to sell. Cheers, RickO

    Most Barbers were dipped/lightly cleaned in the 50's and early 60's. You would be surprised what a 1/2 century or more stored in some type of paper product or even just lying around will do to erase the effects of a dip. I think the entire group except the 3 coins in the middle of each row have for sure been dipped at some time. Of course I'm a purist.

    Over 20 years ago I bought a modern crap collection to get 2 Barber Dimes. He got them from his Grandfather. They had that dark golden grey toning that was 100% original which you rarely see these days on an MS coin. At the time it was the 1st or 2nd time I submitted coins to be graded. The dealer I was submitting them through said I was wasting my money and they were AU at best! I don't know if he thought I would sell him to him for AU's but I said no, I want to have them graded. Well I made the 1st 2 MS 1903-O Barber Dimes graded at the time, a 62 + a 63! :# The dealer just said I got lucky....yeah....right!
