    Here - for the first time shown to anyone - are my Dansco images:

    This was the set that Glenn mentioned being purchased in Boston. Quite a few of these coins were purchased certified
    and I cracked them out for the Dansco.

    I apologise for the small images - again - something between my Lap Top and PhotoBucket isn't gelling.

    --------------------------------

    Thanks again for all the nice comments !!

    Cratylus - Thank you for purchasing Twenty "21" One Halves -
    and I'd be very interested in which nine coins were once your's.

    Good Morning, Mike.
    I'm not sure if all nine of my "repurchases" were from your set or not.
    However, here are the coins I purchased from Glenn that reside for the
    second time in my collection:

    1. 1892-O VF35 (PCGS undergraded it as a VF30)
    2. 1892-S XF40 (PCGS overgraded it as an XF45)
    3. 1896-O VF35
    4. 1901-O XF40
    5. 1903-O XF40
    6. 1906-O XF40
    7. 1908-S VF35 (PCGS overgraded it as an XF40)
    8. 1909 XF45
    9. 1909-S VF35

    I thought the 1896-S VF35 might have been a tenth coin but after
    studying some hi-res scans of my old set I don't believe it's the same
    coin I used to own.

    Again, Mike I can't thank you enough for offering up this set. It has
    allowed me to get off to a great start on putting this set together for
    the fourth time. I won't be finishing it in my record time this go around
    (the first time I assembled this set back in 1998-99 I did it in, believe it
    or not, 9½ months!), but it will be a fun journey nonetheless.

    And thanks again to Glenn for putting the coins up for sale here and
    bearing with my numerous emails the night he was uploading all the
    images here. image

    << <i>
    MFH: EDIT: Here are my sources for the nine coins listed:

    1. 1892-O VF35 (PCGS undergraded it as a VF30) I cracked this coin out of a PCGS 35 holder from the Red Stick Collection for the Raw Dansco album
    2. 1892-S XF40 (PCGS overgraded it as an XF45) This coin came from the Red Stick Collection in Louisiana
    3. 1896-O VF35 I cracked this coin out of a PCGS 35 holder for the Dansco - I purchased from JJ Teaparty
    4. 1901-O XF40 Another Red Stick coin
    5. 1903-O XF40 Another Red Stick coin
    6. 1906-O XF40 A "TomBr" Tom Breivogel coin
    7. 1908-S VF35 (PCGS overgraded it as an XF40) Another Tom Breivogel coin
    8. 1909 XF45 A Chris Dudzik "Manorcourtman" coin
    9. 1909-S VF35 Another Red Stick coin

    I thought the 1896-S VF35 might have been a tenth coin but after
    studying some hi-res scans of my old set I don't believe it's the same
    coin I used to own. the 1896-S you bought was also from The Red Stick Collection

    Again, Mike I can't thank you enough for offering up this set. You are most welcome !! >>

    Hope all is well with the show in Baltimore.

    Looking forward to hear of the goings - on !!

    Glenn,
    I'll need an updated list of what's sold so I
    can remove the coins from my Registry sets. I mentioned
    earlier that I had deleted all coins sold so far - but as you
    have been so busy - I don't want to obstruct anyone from
    adding to their Registry sets.

    Edited:

    PM: Sent

    Glenn PM'd me back yesterday - he just left Baltimore - and plans on updating
    his web site to remove sold coins and to add the unsold Barber Halves that are
    in this BST Thread.

    I also want to thank all my fellow Barberites for the great response.

    Still a lot of nice coins available. I just got a new camera so I hope to play with it today, learn how to use it and if I catch on I will post some of the lower grade coin's photos in this thread. Thanks for the great responses and for looking.

    TTT for the weekenders !!

    If someone has any doubts - please contact anyone
    who's posted here for a reference - either with myself
    or Glenn Holsonbake.

    I promise you will not be disappointed - either in the coins or
    the service. I have never met anyone who is as easy to work with
    than Glenn.

    If you don't see anything that catches your eye, send Glenn a PM
    and he'll start a want list for you.

    Thanks again, Glenn for all of your assistance
    in helping me sell off my second set of Halves.

    For those who've been following this Thread,
    all but two of my second set have been sold.
    Many coins have gone to old friends and many
    have been sent to new friends. I hope everyone
    was pleased with their purchases.

    I also need to say that there are a number of great
    coins still available, just that I have no personal vested
    interest in them.

    I can say unequivocally that Glenn expended
    efforts far and above what most would ever
    expect from a consignment. His hard work in
    the disbursal of my duplicate Half Dollar collection
    is to be commended.

    I highly recommend Glenn to any and all who are
    either still adding to their collection or contemplating
    liquidating their Barber collection[s]. { or... any other
    coin collection, for that matter }.

    As I have done during the recent Boston ANA convention,
    I will be assisting Glenn, once more, at the Tampa FUN show.

    I hope to meet you all there !!

    GREAT stuff! Glad I was able to get one to upgrade my set.

    As someone who assembled a set of these in VF-XF, I have to say opportunity is knocking VERY loud here and Glenn is a great guy to do business with.
