Thanks Swampboy and Barndog.

Barndog, care to guess the variety on the 1814?

how about O-108. Wow, nice!

drddm

Barndog, you are correct sir (actually O-108a) but pretty impressive reverse strike on the left wing don't you think, especially for an E/A?

Barndog

I was wondering if it was the 108a as the die looks totally deteriorated, but I couldn't spot the cracks. Plus, I'm a novice at halves.

Barndog

and I should add, as I sat at my daughter's check up today and watched her do the eye test, she was reading things clearly that I could not even make out or ascertain shape. I guess I should move from collecting half dimes to collecting silver eagles.

You may be a novice but you had no problem with the 1814 E/A

Care to guess at the variety on the 1823?

Wow! drddm, that's a gaggle of beautious busties!!

Love em all! The 1814 does have loads of character. The 1827 is incredible as well.

Wow, what a group, thanks for the look!!!

Thanks Jim. I normally don't go after the dipped CBH's unless they are pretty scarce.

And, with the 1814 being an E/A with a really nice reverse left wing strike, I couldn't say no.

The best part of the story behind my acquisition on the 1814 E/A above is that the holder didn't say E/A on it and so the dealer priced it slightly above a normal 1814 AU55. Would you believe it he also had a sticker on the coin that said O-108a (but I guess he didn't know what a O-108a really was). You gotta love unattributed bust halves

Very lovely indeed.

Nice stuff, David!

OMG...those are some of the nicest CBH's I've seen. No wonder you sold your gorgeous '09-S IHC. The '14 must have cost that pretty penny.

Very nice, Dave. Congrats on the fine coins. They are simply beautiful!

Dave, You definitely have the eye for good looking Busties, and special varieties too.

Thanks for sharing these with us. It helps those of us still learning to truly know what to look for in a CBH. Very impressive!

Good morning all, and thanks for the kind words on my CBH's.

I love them all, however I am particularly fond of my 1811/10, 1814 E/A, 1827 Curl 2 and 1823 Ugly 3, all AU55, except for the Ugly 3, which is AU58.

I also recently added more Mark Goodman pics to my CBH Registry.

Congrats again!!

Dang just had to clean the drool and coffee off the keyboard. Great looking images of really eye appealing coins.
Thanks for sharing.

JRocco

Awesome coins DDM. What a treat to see these beauties.
That 14 E/A is a show stopper.

maibockaddict

Yes, very fun set of Busties! I'll have the lot!

coinnut

Beautiful collection of busties there drddm!!

drddm

Thanks again everyone for the kind words.

I recently picked up the first coin in this set of pics, 1811/10 PCGS 55, which happens to be one of my favorites in my entire set. It has beautiful toning, mainly on the obverse, with a great strike and super, original surfaces....a really tough coin to find in PCGS AU55 and higher.
