It's all over now - 1815/2 Capped Bust on da Bay

This nice looking ANACS 1815/2 Half finished earlier today. It passed my price range a few days ago, but this is one I wish I had the funds for!

    Plus, there's a nice double reverse clash with a nice spread between each other!!!

    Tough coin! I have an 1815 quarter and I'd love to find an 1815 half to go with it...too bad the half costs 4X what the quarter does (at least!)

    I know how you feel. I'd like to acquire an 1815 half eagle but haven't been able to find one. Anyone have one for sale?

    Thats definately a tough date to acquire in any problem free grade.Its still on my list to a complete date set of capped bust halves.I will hopefully find a pcgs f12-vf20 when the time comes.

    This cleaning appears mild. Can't tell how much luster, if any, remains. Must admit, I usually grade the 1815/s CBHs higher than the top three. EF40? Why??? Left wing strike weakness? Again, luster may be a factor here but she looks a solid 45.

    If the cleaning is as mild as I suspect, I think the winner will be very pleased at that price.
