Nice group. Did you send those to pcgs raw or buy them?
Cert numbers seem close enough to each other is why I ask.

Nice trio of Busties

That "Ugly 3" is a real toughie!

C0inCollect0r · October 17, 2013 4:16PM

A very nice set. I like the patina

Nice

BustCuds · October 17, 2013 8:24PM

Nicely matched trio...Congrats.

Nice group. Bet they cost a pretty penny for the grade...

jayPem · October 17, 2013 11:53PM

Choice ! Whats the grade on the ugly 3 ?

Vbowling299 · October 18, 2013 3:25AM

Placid: I bought them all from the dealer who submitted them together

Busthalfbrian: The ugly 3 is my favorite! it looks undergraded to me, but maybe that is typical for the variety?

maibockaddict: They sure were expensive, but they are nice so i think it will work out in the end!

jayPem: The ugly 3 is vf25!

Thanks everyone else for the comments and 123cents for the attributions!

I have seen quite a few undergraded CBH's coming out of PCGS lately. I bet the dealer thought they would grade higher, so you are paying not only for originality, but also because they were perhaps purchased with higher grades in mind.

Out of curiosity, do any have luster remaining? It is sort of a joke around the BHNC about seeing VF holdered CBH's that have decent luster remaining (not supposed to have any going by ANA grading standards, usually meaning apparent wear is actually strike weakness)

very nice.. i collect those also, in that same grade

Vbowling299 · October 18, 2013 11:03AM

I was okay paying a higher price based on the higher quality though. So many of the examples i see are dipped white in these grades and unattractive. When i get home sunday night i will check if they display any luster on them...i just knew i was happy to see some nice original pieces!
Thanks for the complements! I know alot of members chase these kind of pieces...luckily i caught them in time

Congrats on some nice pick-ups! I have a spare XF broken 3 that would look great alongside that ugly.

I'm not a fan of tilted pictures. I find them a little irritating, actually. Harder to attribute, weird angles intended to show off corner case color. Give them to me straight, thank you very much.

lance,
i will try to keep them more direct, but with only having my i-phone, it is rather difficult to take anything meaningful straight on, and i will think about that other coin possibly in the future

I really like the color on all 3.
