    I’m going to be more realistic. I’m working on a high grade PCGS Proof Barber Dime set, with nine slots still empty. So not one coin, but I’d like to buy coins for as many of those slots as possible, as long as:

    1. They have nice eye appeal.
    2. They are graded by PCGS, since this Registry set only accepts those.
    3. They are each graded anywhere from PR66CAM - PR67+CAM.
    4. They each merit a CAC sticker. My grading skills are poor, so having CAC say the coin is solid BOTH for the numerical grade AND the CAM suffix, and that the surfaces, in their opinion, have not been “messed with”, gives me peace of mind, and should make it easier to sell at a fair price down the road by me or my heirs.

    Jon, can you help me? These coins are in your “wheelhouse” - PCGS high graded coins that merit CAC stickers! I’ll see you in Orlando next week!

    Still looking for that elusive blast white 1916 SLQ in a PCGS, MS65 FH w/CAC certified holder.

    I can't say a specific date. I have a group of coins that represent some of the different types of coins ( DDO, DDR, mis-placed date etc.) from the Fortin top 100 coins. I have 2 types I would dearly love to find. james

    I’m very content with my 64FH, one of my most expensive coins, by far. Good luck on a 65FH. I’m rooting for you!!!

    Steve

    Thanks Steve. Yours is exquisite! No reason why it's not in a 65 FH holder. Zack.

    I've tried to get a plus via Reconsideration, but failed.
