    That is a hard thing to find on the web. Here is one page:

    JRCS

    And here is one on the 1817 Half:
    1817

    For more info, you will need the Overton half book. Look for the last edition 1990. They are sometimes on ebay or you can check the buy sell, trade forum here.
    Looking for a coin club in Maryland? Try:

    And once again, the Russ Logan site. This is actually the auction catalog for his collection, but seeing as how he had most of the varieties it's been my attribution guide lately. Many of the dates also feature off centers, etc. .Check it out

    my answer would be NO.

    get out to major coin shows, talk to dealers who specialize in 'em. that's the only way you'll learn something useful about bust halves. the point i'm trying to make is, seeing digi-pics on the internet, etc etc, is only a disaster waiting to happen. you must learn to educate yourself on this type of material 1st hand.
