Phenomenal collection. Seeing the pictures of them all together is very impressive. How many varieties do you own now?
Thanks all! I need to get them all out of the SDB for a new group picture someday soon, I really don't know how many there are now, must be well over 100 quarters.
Still missing both varieties of 1796 and both 1804, both 25/50, the 1823 and 1827, 1806 B8 and 1821 B6, but have almost all the other Browning varieties.
Thank you for bearing with me as I post the sporadic new purchases, it's great to share and archive them with you, my family and friends don't care much (that's nice, dear 🙄) anyway here is an 1825 B2 late die state
Fantastic coins! As a bust quarter enthusiast, I’ve probably enjoyed looking at this collection more than any other collection posted on this site. This collecting approach is way more fun than a registry set, in my opinion.
Amazing, I love what you're doing honestly from an outsider point of view this type of collecting is what I'm the biggest fan of. I know I never would have the focus to do it myself though!

Often it will be months or even years between purchases, and sometimes two or more coins will appear within a couple of weeks.
Hence the intermittent updates.
Thanks again fellows, happy collecting

As I've said before, I love your collection. Great job and keep going.
I miss @Billet7 . He was also a bust quarter collector from back in the day. Saw a bunch of his posts on this thread.
1806 B6 is very hard to find! Nice pickup.
Way to go! nice set.

Cool stuff!

Did you ever start on the small size set?
This!!
Well done Bailey.
Look foward to seeing updated images.
Have an 1831 and 1838, and two or three others in type set albums, but have focused on the rarer, more appealing, sexier large sized busts

Baley - Is your set out there yet. I see gpeters is there.....he is in my Dime Bust Set as well.
Neat - like the album!
If you mean Registered, then no..
If i were to send them all in for attribution, I would zoom to 3rd current and all-time in the early quarters by variety category.
Most are raw, and of those that are PCGS, few have Browning numbers on the tag.. this newp ain't
Anyone know what it would cost (full ride: grading fees, postage, insurance) to get this reslabbed with the B-5 on the tag?

That’s a nice new addition! I’m looking forward to a group photo of all 100+ coins someday.
I thought you only stacked previous metals !😄
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
Nice addition!

Wow, Baley. What a cool collection!
A nice collection that took a lot of time and numismatic skill, and the coins can be touched!

What a great collection @Baley ! Thank you for sharing it with us!!

The updated group shot is super impressive. Well done. I agree this is one of the most enjoyable threads for me as well.
Two thumbs up on this set.

I'm really surprised that I didn't see "quarternut" post early on in this thread.
I miss quarternut.
Fantastic set. The best part is that they are free of the plastic.
