These latest pics make it look very good. There are several Bust Quarter experts on CU (Collectors Universe) Forums. You might post some images over there to see what they think. Best of luck.

Unbelievable. It even has the known narrow-vee die imperfection between the two upper right stars, something I doubt would be so easily duplicated even by a transfer die. This may well be the cherrypick of the year.  Popcorn for all!

As written in the other thread, I'm happy for you. This really is a great catch. And I think you could pay off quite a bit of debt with what it's catalogued for - and maybe still have a bit left to buy a gift for yourself, like a car or so?
Just out of curiosity, and I fully respect if you don't want to say, of course, but how much was your winning bid?

I couldn't be happier for you! 
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

It's from June 7th so it has been archived. I did make a recording of my bid just in case the seller decided not to send it to me.

Amazing Quarter. Now you guys, tell the truth. Not meaning to hi-jack the thread and there's no need to answer but ...  How many of you went on ebay and tried searching for "Old Liberty Coin" or something like that after seeing this post? I confess, I did.
