That's a pretty well done fake. It's even got the edge letters!

Yeah, Moe. I was surprised on the coin having edge lettering as well. Nice half, Moe and nice quarters, Paralyse.

Thanks guys!
I got lucky and got the 1819 for $300 less than retail, and even then it was still 3x more expensive than the 1825!

Just picked up 3 more Busties from the local show today. Overall, I think I seen more Bust Halves at this show than any others I've been to. One that stuck out (but I couldn't afford) was an 1832 ICG graded MS-62 with just stunning peripheral toning. I also saw my first Proof Morgan in person (1894 PCGS 64). Just a great show all around. Anyway, here's the first of the 3 I picked up.......  O-120
