I really like 1807 draped bust halves

For some reason I have always been drawn to coins from 1807. Most likely this is due to draped bust coins of 1807 often being the
most available and inexpensive. Many type collectors are very thankful for the coins from 1807.
For the past 2 yrs I have been accumulating 1807 bust halves. For many years there was only ten Overtons for the 07 draped bust, then Baley on the
Boards had to go and find a new one (O115), a few yrs ago.
My plan is to try and accumulate O101-O110 in decent VG-VF condition. This has been more difficult than I had thought. Goes to show how even a "common"1807
draped bust coin is anything but common.
Post your 1807 bust halves, love looking at them.

1807 50C Draped Bust VF25 PCGS # 6079 : Minage 301,076 This coin is a O.110 R.2 Stars have long sharp points. Large 180 and small 7. Right base of F missing.
The dianogistic of the 110.
This is an O.104.
The nice thing about the O102 is that it seems to be the one variety of the year that usually has a great strike.
The O105 become a little more challenging in the a version, still trying to find one.
here is another O102 that wasn't in the group shot, also including a close up of the O103 (my favorite)

Edited to add: I cant seem to attend a coin show without picking up a DBH like these for about $200. They arent real common, but I tend to see maybe half a dozen in this kind of condition, and always have to go home with one. Im a DBH junky too fish!
<< <i>Winston, that is one very nice original crusty DBH you have their, I really like it.
I was fortunate enough to have that coin offered to me by TomB. It’s really his eyes that deserve the credit. I’ll just take credit for being smart enough to buy everything that Tom offers me
Buying top quality Seated Dimes in Gem BU and Proof.
Buying great coins - monster eye appeal only.
<< <i>Here is my crappy little 1807 DBH collection. Nobody ever accused me of having a good eye for coins.

Well hey now, I can think of someone who would love those coins if you don't want them...
I think those are some great coins! Be proud!

Here is an 1807 O-106
Major diagnostic is the upper berry is half buried in the leaf and (thanks Nysoto) the lowest berry is between the serifs of the A in AMERICA.
This is the third use of this obverse die and is evident in the shallow relief compared to the reverse die.
