I'm LOVING this thread, and I think it should continue until the end of the Decade
I finally returned back to my childhood home, and awaiting me were my recent Heritage and Stacks-Bowers NewP's. On top of that about a half-dozen other spectacular mid-grade VF crusty Busty's Unfortunately I don't have my coin-camera with me to snap shots, but I will post more images later today!!!
Soon we will be caught-up with the Barber Mega Thread
here are some of my draped bust quarters and halves

Baley, I was looking at your quarters and the very first one is a B-1,you have scarce written by it. I thought a B-1 was like a rarity 5 or 6. By the way I know very little about bust quarters I just happened to have a B-1 bust quarter in F-15 and I thought it was worth much more than the $399 you have written by yours.
2 NewPs from the past 24-Hours. I couldn't wait for them to arrive so I am posting each sellers pics (slightly modified)
1805 Draped Bust Half, PCGS-12 I've been looking for a reasonably priced and eye-appealing 1805 Half for 6+ years now.
1836 JR-2 Dime, PCGS-30 PQ for grade. Crusty. JR-2 (R2) die marriage, but let me tell ya it's taken me 2+ years to find this die marriage in this grade with this color. One tough cookie, but all my 1836 die marriages are complete
