    That's a nice one Tim! I'm sure you are surprised by how much the VF30 of THAT date went for last night on GC, I know I sure am. I've got a soft spot for 1903 S quarters and here's one of my examples- PCGS VF35:

    @sedulous Fantastic 1905-o quarter, and certainly one of my favorite dates. Have fun at the show! Can't think of a better time playing with Barbers! Jealous!

    Two favorite dates/coins.

    Shireman, Ducker, holy smokes @Eldorado9 Eldo! your killin' it with your collection!

    1903-S, ok Jed! Sweet circulation-tone quality on yours. It has that slight brownish-tinge in hand? (asking because sometimes digital images can be deceiving).

    This one has a slightly darker gray appearance as shown. I am surprised it got a plus grade actually:

    1903-S Barber Quarter PCGS XF45+


    1903-S quarter would be a great choice.

    I’m partial to the 1897 O Half. I’ve owned many of them over the years, constantly looking for a coin that would grade as a 58. Then I found this one, and it graded as I hoped:

    I love them Barber Halves.....

    I dont know, these, "P" dates are pretty special too! Now I just need to find a 96 to compete my mint state date set!

    Did you win the 1896 MS66 at tonight's CAC Approved Coinage auction at HA?.

    I did not, I was focused on the two above coins. I will have to start expanding my search I guess.

    The special display I mentioned earlier was never shown or displayed together before per my understanding. The #1 Everyman Registry Collection of 100%Swede!

    Really amazing!

    Amazing accomplishment, many with CACs. The individual coins can be viewed on the PCGS Set Registry at Everyman Twenty Cents and Quarters - Everyman Barber Quarters (1892-1916) - 100% Swede

    I rarely get excited about uncirculated pieces but I couldn't pass this old holder one up:

    I bought this absolute blazer "as is"
    five years ago for less than $200. None of my Barbers are as bright as this one.
