I don't normally buy 20th century coins but this one called to me

 I like 18th and early 19th century coinage.  I think the early 20th century stuff is nice but rarely does a coin from the 20th century's call out to me to add to the set.

This barber dime came from Coinlieutenant a few months ago. Looking through the safe deposit box today and had kind of forgot about this coin. It's currently the only 20th century coin in my core collection.
It did arrive in the same box as a really cool early half dime. So maybe that helped my opinion of the coin

    why did my first lines of typing end up in a scroll bar?

    You must have added some character before that portion of the text that the forum software reads as the command for a scroll bar.

    The coin is very nice and would be a coin you should be proud to own (even if it is your only 20th century example).

    The Barber is worth every bit of the 67 it got, and as clean and unmarked as it is, I believe it could even be graded higher.
