A couple of re-Imaged Busties with added edge pics

The edge on this

1809 O-103

is rather messy and cool, so I figured that I would add it to the site and do a post:








Here is another favorite that I re-imaged recently, and added the edge as it is different by this year

1831 O-115

I really like the edge views. Nice job!

sweet...descent enough image skills there

i like the aspect of lettered edge examples displaying their...lettered edge
something about that seems just and right

sweet examples too of those early precious big ol chunks of us coinage

luster with meaty details and crustiness happiness all wrapped in one

Thanks for checking it out guys, and the compliments....

All relevant edge view pics can always be found on my site (the unusual ones that is!)

Cool! Imaging the edges of these Busties isn't always easy.

I like your coins, too! XF45 and AU53?

EDIT: Oh wow, I was way off on the 1809 Do you think that coin is properly grade? I see luster, so it could easily be AU-something, but AU55 seems a little strong.

Brian, I remember this coin from Heritage being in an ANACS AU50 holder....then it came around again as an NGC 55. Think its proper grade is 53, weak strike, nearly no wear, and the luster IS pretty good, almost worthy of a 55 but not quite. I did not pay 55 money for it at the time either. And the colors are rather neat in hand...

The '31 has only slight high point wear with deep crusty toning. The luster is subdued, and I know some would want more flash for a 55, but I like the originality and detail. And the surfaces have no issues whatsoever...
