As I stated when I started this informational picture series with the 1836 Capped Bust Half thread, I would start the first three threads, which I did. Now it is time for someone to start the 1833 CBH mint date thread tomorrow. Anyone can start the 1833 CBH thread and include whatever information they like. Feel free to copy and use my CBH series introductory information:
General guidelines:
1. Members can simply post pictures, or include pertinent information like Overton marriage and diagnostics, or just ask for information about their pictured coin from other members. Please keep picture file sizes within reason for dial up members.
2. Ultimately, we would like to see at least one example pictured for each Overton marriage.
3. To begin this series, I would like to start the first three threads myself, and then open it up for anyone to open threads as the next year start times come up. Thread starts are only on Thursdays and Sundays.
I hope CU members will continue to add to the 1836, 1835, 1834, and so on CBH threads for a long time. Most of my coins have already been posted.
Join in the Bustie fun!

I think if you reminded us a day or two before the official start of 1827 on November 16, members would allow you to start it. A sure way would be to start it right after midnight, the start of November 16. Since I am up late, I started the previous threads just after midnight Pacific time. Wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to see the thread first thing in the morning.
Believe it or not, I kept track of your 1836 thread comment saying you only had one CBH, your 1827. Twenty-three CU members have commented/pictured on at least one of the first three threads. I think there are many others that are waiting to post their coins when their official dates start. Everyone is encouraged to comment on whatever is pertinent to the threads.

Great, I can relax now.
rhedden just reminded us that "Each new thread should contain links to all previous threads (1836, 1835, 1834....). Otherwise, they sink quickly on the boards, and they're very hard to find later on without doing a search.". Amanda first posted this suggestion on the thread when I asked about starting this series. I expect she will be buying more CBHs soon.
I can start the thread for 1832 on Sunday if you'd like
<< <i>linking them all is a great idea.

That would be great. I will look forward to it.
My first goal is that the CBH series is successful to its completion. My second goal is that all CU members have the opportunity to show off their Busties and express themselves in the threads.
How do you CU members think we should handle this business about who will start the next CBH series thread as we work our way down through to 1807?
