Been looking for a large 8, 1811 Bustie, and found one

On ebay of all places. Dipped, yes, but great luster for the grade, and (I think) a really lovely coin. Opinions welcome, even if contrary!!! Can anyone help me with the Overton number? It hasn't been that easy finding a large 8!
Thanks
Mike

I don't think its been dipped. What am I missing?

How did I miss that one. NICE catch. As for Overton, it's 104 "a".

I have a 1811 bustie, it's significantly different from yours, but I have it!

Yes, but Mike's is made from a good-looking metal rather than that yellow junk.

Very nice bustie. I love the die cracks. Very sweet.

That's a great looking 1811. May I ask if you were happy with the purchase price, or had to pay moon money for it?

That's a SWEET Bustie. Cool die cracks.
