The coin is MS62 but the sticker is clearly PMD.

I had a nice standing liberty quarter in MS62 that I sold and "upgraded". Yes, the luster was a bit impaired, but it had overall great eye appeal with nice pops of color.

But I still have a few other nice ones. The barber is the first certified coin I ever owned, going back ~25 years.



Here are a couple others in my "sold" bucket, the CC 20c (CAC) being the standout:

A "finest known" Overton variety and by far the most expensive coin in my collection.

This is one of the most “original” looking SLHs I have but it’s almost 200 years old and it’s possible someone may have messed with it in the past.

I really love the look of this Arrows and Rays half. The details are so striking. CACG 62+6 -




A couple with pics that were handy. I generally like seated halves at 62, a nice mix of quality for the price, especially with the way high end AUs are priced these days.

@Southcounty I'm so impressed with your set. Wonderful coins surely selectively assembled over many years. Thanks for sharing a few here!

This was at the bottom of a small box of old coins I was appraising. I sent it in just to be authenticated and it came back MS which was a surprise.1 -

It's another 62 (CAC) that is a great fit for my collection. I didn't have a Philly 1859 so I was happy to add it. So tough to find nice seated halves.

Dan! Awesome thread - your 62’s are beyond top notch,imo. Just beautiful! I’m a bit late to the “party”, but I have a few nice FE’s to add:


(The S-1 is the ultra rarity of the FE PR series)



(The S-4 is a seldom encountered variety)



(The LL design normally has the High Leaves rev)

Your tenth?! I have two Fair2s and two AG3s in my collection. No MS62s.

Here's my new AG3 WB-2 (R5).


It's an upgrade over my Fair-2 WB-2
