Hi All,
I look forward to getting back into collecting after a decade-long hiatus. And here's the piece I chose to take the plunge:
Cheers,

Edit (04/18/20):
I now have a problem---an addiction to toned bust coinage. Just picked this one up and I'm promising myself this is the last one:

Nice coin!

Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
JRocco,
That's a beautiful coin with a surprising amount of luster. I bet it looks even better in person.
Dave,
I had one 1830 CBH in AU-55 but I had to sell it to fund a move. That was when I stopped collecting. Moving for government jobs and supporting a growing family required me to focus on other things. I'm finally at a spot now where I can gradually build my collection back up. I plan to focus on expanding into as many types as I can, and I have a weakness for toned coins.
Great choice!
I see it sold on ebay last year, twice in two weeks. Did you win it there? I always like to see other images but those sales were too long ago.

No, I picked it up from Eye Appealing Coins this morning (no idea when it will ship, given the virus situation; hopefully I'll have it in hand soon). I saw it on eBay last night and noticed that they had it listed for less on their website.
I don't think you'll be disappointed. Congrats!
Lance.
Welcome back to the boards and collecting great peace
Best place to buy !

I did the same before the last Baltimore show, and picked it up from Phil in person. Also an 1833:
I really enjoy the color of yours. Nice pickup and welcome.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.

Beautiful coin, a great start to your new collection. Welcome!
I was away some years ago from the hobby. It's been a very fun ride the last 19 years. I hope it brings you as much joy as it has me. Welcome back and that's a sweet CBH you got there!

Such a beautiful coin. It´s a really remarkable come back to the hobby!
Apparently 1833 is the year for toning.

Coin collecting gets into your blood and seems to always remain there. Welcome!
I knew it would happen.
Thanks again for all the kind words, everyone. It may be a while before my next acquisition, but I'll probably start by filling out my half dollar type set. Next on the block will be a circulated draped bust. I've seen a few examples in the VG - VF range with attractive, colorful toning.
Great looking coin coin and great way to jump back in.
Cream puff! Great piece.

Welcome back to the hobby. This is a great place to share and learn. Keep the posts coming.
Edited the first post. Hoping y'all can keep me accountable!
Welcome. Good first post. Every coin I buy is going to be my last. Hasn’t worked yet.
Pretty dime! Would probably be a good idea to post it down here (as well) to ease navigation.
Sure thing:
