muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7191 Posts	Posted 01/14/2013 7:35 pm I wish you the best on your quest for a set. I chose to go with a few individual coins of higher grade for my collection. They are really beautiful pieces of history. Report this Post to the Staff

Voshus007 Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 01/14/2013 8:05 pm Wow that is amazing!! Great collection! Have any been cleaned? Report this Post to the Staff

None seem harshly cleaned but, I'm sure, many of these have probably been cleaned at one point in their lives. Report this Post to the Staff

BOTH Capped Bust half dollars AND Seated Liberty half dollars? Nice!! (Don't even ask me how much I have invested in Seated Liberty Half Dollars...) Report this Post to the Staff
Classic Coins Pillar of the Community United States 940 Posts	Posted 12/29/2018 1:11 pm Voshus007, Congrats on your new coins! You're off to a nice start. My recommendation would be to take it slow, and try to acquire quality grades, and varieties as well. The Capped Bust half dollar series is loaded with repunched dates, stars, and letters; die cracks; and other varieties. Quote: Could you post any pictures of them for motivation :) Here is an 1813 Capped Bust half dollar with a die clash above the date, a die crack through the hair, a repunched star to the right of the die crack, and a notch in the last star.
