    Welcome back, Lance. You've been missed.

    Nice additions...personal favorites are the 1808 109a and the 1812 109 (before the die injury)

    Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.

    Good way to come back out of the woodwork, and with a big splash of tasty halves!

    The water has been fairly safe, save for some alts that like to post corroded "penneys" with pretty good microscope images while loudly announcing that it's a major find/rarity.

    I'm just 70 out of 79 for the major varieties registry set. I really wish they (PCGS) would remove the 1817/4 from that set; pretty much no one can get one of those to complete it.

    Great post as always, Lance. As far as collecting bust halves - you're doing it right!

    It's rare I see a post with a half dozen or so coins that I love each and every one but I do all of these bust halves.
    Great eye Lance!

    Hey Lance! Some of those look UNC but I know you don't want them to be! :)

    Ha. You're too sharp. Yes, there are a couple of UNC's. One of the 1812's, e.g.

    @Wabbit2313, I should consign to you all of my later silver halves and dollars. So you can do for me what Andy Scrabalak (Angel Dee's) has done with my small cents. Get the winners upgraded and sell them for much better prices. I'm not very good at that.
    Lance.
