Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 10/15/2007 4:08 pm Well, I just picked my BD present with the wife's Okay, LOL. An 1826 Capped Busty, O-105 (R3). Not bad for a VF-30/35ish example which was less than $100 and it was needed for the old BCBHD Collection. Now the long wait for the postal delivery, at leat 10 days normally... Please share your thoughts. 112 Varieties, 122 Coins in the BCBHD Collection ;-) Many Thanks for taking a look Ben Report this Post to the Staff

Only one question...what's with that "square" on the obverse that covers the forehead to the chest? Is this just a lighting issue, do you suppose? You have great taste in coins!

Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 10/15/2007 8:23 pm Hunter, it appears to have been tape or something else which was on the coin for a LONG period of time, long enough for some pattern toning to occur before the album toning arond the edges. One of the reasons (no doubt) it was only $95. No mater, as it's Blue Collar Bust Half Dollar (BCBHD) material to me. LOL... Take Care Ben Report this Post to the Staff
