cownas22 Pillar of the Community United States 1055 Posts	Posted 06/14/2010 4:06 pm Wow Zeewool I think you might need to add a 1837 or two to the collection to even it out It appears that you have quite the bust half collection! Right now I just have the two coins for my type set but would like to chase after the bust halves after I finish that set. What reference books would you recommend for a budding capped bust half enthusiast like myself? Report this Post to the Staff
zeewool Pillar of the Community 3660 Posts	Posted 06/14/2010 6:41 pm I do have a few more, but picture posting has gotten to be more of a chore than fun, so I am done. As far as reference books on CBH, it would seem that the 'bibles' are (for the reeded edge-"Variety Identification Manual For US Reeded Edge Half Dollars 1836 to 1839" by Jules Reiver), and (for the lettered edge-"US Early Half Dollar Die Varieties 1794-1836" by Al Overton). I cannot really recommend either or any other books as these are the only two that I have read, and both leave a lot to be desired (in my opinion). I find the draped bust halves more interesting, and I have quite a few of them. Here are a very few circulated examples that I read were allowed in this thread. 1807 O-101 1806 O-104A 1805 O-110 1803 O-103 And a flowing hair example, 1795 O-117 Maybe next time, we will do early dollars (I've got some of those as well) Report this Post to the Staff

zeewool Pillar of the Community 3660 Posts	Posted 06/14/2010 7:18 pm Nice coins Moe. I sure like the looks of that '14 O101A, especially ripples above 50C on the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
