any major issues with this coin? As you all know ive been saying that this series is new for me. Dont know it well and trying to learn. But I did finally choose to get this and send a down payment., Let me know what you think. I prefer them in much higher grades but this coin is cool to me,

Very nice. From the images, looks like a fair amount of luster for the grade and just enough crust. Love those old fattys too. Again, very nice!

Nice pick-up! I like that die crack on the rev.

Very nice example. While I enjoy an LDS Morgan dollar I do appreciate a Bust Half that is not. |

That's something to give thanks for!  IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

A very colorful Capped Bust.
You should post this beauty in the toned coin link.

Nice looker, alright, and a solid XF. I'd call it variety O-109a. This variety is characterized by the high and wide first 1 in the date, large stars, and the die crack on the reverse. Congrats on your selection!

That's a nice one! Unlike a lot of other series you can find some nicely toned capped busts halves in the XF range.

What is a good reference to learn about the varietys, like the 0-109a? I see it also from your description but where can I learn more? Thanks for the info! I can't wait to see this one in hand but ill be paying it off for a little while so it will be some time till I can hold it and take more photos. Thanks guys, I'm glad you like it! I have alot to learn about this series though, and most others.
