Quote: Ah, you were looking for suggestions... I'd say to get this set looking right, I'd go for uprades on your early halves and cents. But then again, you knew that. But, were it me, that's where I'd start! Both of your draped busts have great detail but seem to lack a bit in eye appeal. I've read in a couple of places that for early copper, it's important to get clean, problem free coins - and apparently this is more important for collectability than detail.
Yeah, the early copper is by far the most expensive in higher grade problem free. My XF-45 classic head large cent cost an arm and a leg.
Johnny, I was just reading a first edition of Sheldon's book - and some of the rarest 1793 varieties are listed at $15! Hahaha... oh, to buy a beautiful early copper for $6.
