  • Nice addition to the hoard!
  • Sweet looking coin there George. I love the toning. Are you branching out of the very fine, extra fine range now? Moving on up. What's next mint state?image Great job.

    Nah... still like my crusty, stman approved coins... just had a bit of money laying around, and decided to indulge myself on something a little more expensive image

    Nice h10c. If you want nice NGC pics you have to shine your slab regularly.

    Hi George. Congratulations on your new acquisition. Anytime you spend your money on a nice old Bustie,
    rather than some shiny thing with a part on the side of his head. Or some bald dude..... it's got to be
    "stman approved."

    Nice acquisition, George.

    I'm sure you know that the late Mr. Logan would approve, and what you can do to gain even more of his approval -- not that I'm recommending such an action, especially since he's no longer with us.

    These little coins can be so cool if you have the patience, and good eyes. They are relatively inexpensive due to their size. Stay the course, and pick up the rare die (re-)marriages and undeniably original ones. For every multiple of 100 different die (re-)marriage/state of the Bust silvers (any denomination) that you achieve, let me know and I will send you a little something. I'm not guaranteeing you what I'll send you, or its value. But, for reaching each milestone, you will get something numismatic related from me.

    I know, but I'm gonna leave it where it is, for now... maybe sometime down the line when it becomes more space saving to crack em out, or I get an overwhelming urge to crack and check for edge cuds, I will... image

  • George,

    Thanks for posting images. I am very proud of that particular coin, as it was one of the first coins that I was able to AT through the slab (method is patent pending). I am perfecting the technique and will soon have more similarly toned coins to sell you.
