So the last capped bust I purchased turned out to be a mistake as the experts predicted. Came in with hairlines all over it. Well to make up for it I bought this 1826 CBH which should be a O120a variety. Tell me what you think I'm really a sucker for the color on this one.

I don't know about grade, but it's a lovely example!

Very nice! AU-58 from these photos, in hand if you don't see any rubbing it might make MS.

The AU/MS divide is so difficult for me to determine, especially when you throw toning into the equation. I've been comparing it to a bunch of trueviews, and I think it could go either way. Well it's getting shipped off to PCGS next week

Yeah, either way, having it graded is not a bad idea. Then you'll know for sure!

It's a beauty with a nice full strike, you found a great coin. Looking at the talons again, I think this one will slab AU-58.
