I later discovered this one is in the CAC database despite no sticker on the slab.

Any easy thread to love.

Years ago I bought a beautiful original VF 1802 in an ANACs slab, I believe I bought it off Liz Coggan when she was at JJ TeaParty (I think I have that right?) and like an idiot I sold it… for ghod knows what… I love 1801 and 02 DBHs… sigh

Might just be the best thread i have ever scrolled thru. James
This was is NGC graded AU-58. In 1973, it was graded AU-50 in a David Acres auction, held in New York City.
Love toning on the reverse 😍
An 1806 or 1807 Draped Bust Quarter and Half are on my radar. Not this year; have a once in a lifetime trip upcoming.

For those of you (like me) who are always on the lookout, I have it on good authority that one of the most complete DBH Sets by Overton Number is coming up for sale in the next six months. Some of these coins should be available for viewing at the ANA show next month.
I have seen some of these coins in person, and the owner has a fantastic eye. There will be many upper grade coins (EF40 to AU55) and some outstanding rarities.
Watch for the news!

Ok Todd, but those who are looking for a VF or XF can PM me. I still have some Horning halves remaining. They will be on display this weekend at the Cincinnati coin show. See thread about the show if interested.

Good reminder to anyone looking for something special. Charlie had some nice coins!
Good luck in Cinci' ... looking forward to seeing you in OKC.

Thanks! Don’t you owe me an adult beverage?

Oh hell, who even knows any more Brad. One way or another, someone's buying, and it probably won't matter after the first couple.
Maybe Charlie will buy?
