    Nice addition cmanbb, I always liked the look of the small date 34's. Nice color
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    Yes SD, SL................I'm on a roll again, I got 6 possibly 7 more on the way.
    Grades from XF45-AU58

    Nice 1834, but I thought your set was AU.image

    My set is AU with the exception of this 1815 XF45. The 1834 SD, SL is an addition to my collection.
    I'm trying to accumulate 100+ varieties in an attempt to join the BHNC......only about 40 pieces so far.

    I want XF45-AU58 grades only

  • That's a mighty fine 1815! Those tend to come ugly regardless of the grade. When you have 100 die marriages, let us know and we'll be happy to get you a sponsor for BHNC membership.

    Boy have you been busy ! Nice set of Bust Halves you've got there. I especially like the 1826. Stunning !!

    cmanbb,

    The Bust Half Nut Club requires you to be able to attribute Bust Halves. Let's see how YOU do on attributing your 1834.image

    Please, nobody help cmanbb attribute this coin.image

    Congrats on a great looking CBH!

    This CBH is the O-109 variety,

    OBV. although, I cannot find "A patch of tiny dots near lower ribbon" OR "the small die line that extends 3/4 mm from end of Bust"
    Stars 8, 9 & 10 definitely recut, and heavy serif at top of 1
    REV. there is "the double segment above the last S in states" AND "horizontal lines between stripes"

    Possible??

    OBV 9-s2
    REV I



    John,

    We did not dicuss this variety. You mentioned the following:

    << <i>Very original, very crusty...a bit darker than pic but colors are on. >>



    And I stated:

    << <i>Send it. It looks like a nice coin..... >>



    That about all that was discussed.
  • mozinmozin Posts: 8,755 ✭✭✭
    Yep, you got it, O-109.image Considering all the varieties in 1834 small date, small letters, this one was easier to attribute than most. Nice pictures help a lot.
