"Half" way there --

This is a coin that I really love. The 1817/3 is a really great coin/variety, and yours is a real nice one. There are many higher graded pieces with much softer strikes that don't have anywhere near the eye appeal your does.
As a side note- Don't you agree that they should remove the 1817/4 from the variety list because it almost guarantees that the set will never be 100% complete.

The 1817/3 is my favorite CBH and I think the coolest US overdate of all time!

Absolutely should be removed from the set due to 8 examples known, but I understand why it's there.
This set will NEVER be complete because of this variety

Beautiful set, very evenly matched.

CoinAddict

Congratualtions on the accomplishment so far. That is an outstanding set.

cmanbb,

I like your 1817/3. Congratulations on arriving at that 50% mark. You said your set will never be complete because of the 1817/4. What about the 1812/1 LARGE 8? A nice PCGS AU50 will likely run about $25,000.

JRocco,

I see no good reason to include the 1817/4 in the registry set requirements. All it does is tell subscribers that they can never complete a set. Sounds very counterproductive to me.

I wanted that coin BAD...I got the 20/19 in VF30 but Larry snagged the 17/3.

Nice coin.

mozin,

At least the 1812/1 LG 8 IS obtainable............It will most likely be a VF35-XF45 if I can find one of them, but all grades will be considered.

Congratulations Larry. Its one heck of a set you're working on.

TomB: I agree with you, I also love the 1817/3, its a neat overdate. Larry's coin looks very well struck as well.
