New rare Bust Quarter discovery

I'm still wondering how the guy made out with that rare Bust half that he posted images of before FUN, missing the usual edge.

    Something you cherrypicked? If so...NICE!!!image

    Truly a rare quarter even in this lowly grade.

    Sorry your other thread was hijacked...

    Go to Early United States Coins - to order the New "Early United States Half Dollar Vol. 1 / 1794-1807" book or the 1st new Bust Quarter book!

    Thanks, Steve. Do you think it'll grade G04 maybe?

    Very nice!
  • Nice find! You did well. I'd like to see it in a PCGS G-4 or higher but it appear to have very minor rim bumps? Good going in any event, a very rare die marriage currently.

    is he more likely to get his coin in a "graded holder" if he submits it as is? Or is he more likely to get it into a graded holder if he asks for attribution along with the grading?

    I've had more than one conversation on this subject with collectors and dealers alike.

    Definitely a B-5 which is definitely an R6. Great find, and IMO it should grade G-4. Congratulations!

    Obverse 4 / Reverse M

    I'd suggest PM'ing Quarternut and buying his book.
  • Congrats on snagging that off eBay! You got it for a great price!
