Good start for '07 Barber-tastic !

Hi all. Had a decent couple boxes today to kick off the new year !
Have a look...

The first box I opened, had EXACTLY (1) each of Barber, Walker, Franklin, '64 Kennedy, and 40%.
Pretty odd / unique box there. Not a single other silver coin, just 1 of each type.

All the rest came from Box 2. The Walker on the left looks freshly minted.. it had some sort of protective
sticky residue on the front that kept all coin marks and scratches off it, and there is no wear at all. Ive never seen one so perfect, every tiny line and detail is present with no dings or marks anywhere. Photo isnt good enough to see it, but its nice :) The Barber is a 1912 and although worn, is nice to look at too haha.

Happy searching !

:o :o :o :o :o
Well... I am sufficiently jealous :-\
What kinda camera do you have? If you can set it on macro and get a close up of that standing liberty I wouldnt mind getting a closer look.
PS - Were these brinks boxes?

Woo hoo, a Barber three days into January, nice going! Is this a good sign for all of us that this year will be better than average? Hope so.

Fantastic Finds - one heckuva start on the next year. Congratulations!

What year is the Walker? - what a beauty!!!
 

Re: Good start for '07 Barber-tastic !

The mentioned nice Walker is a plain 1935. My Sony Cybershot camera has macro, but its tough getting close with it. These are actually with macro, but on small size pic quality.I will scan it though, and try to get a picture of it up soon. Gonna play with the camera first though, maybe take a huge res. shot, and blow it up as much as I can in Photoshop and go from there. Check back, that will give me something to do in the morning LOL.

Immy - Yes I hope this is a good sign for the year to come :) That would be great !

Also these arent from Brinks. My little town bank uses a small Wells- Fargo associated company.

This first batch wasnt huge in quantity, but was great for a couple nice "keeper" keepers.

Almost in withdrawal already... is it next Wednesday yet ?
