Hey all-

Been reading the posts for a while and thought it was time to register and get a few words in. Fairly new to the hobby (compared to some of you) and am still trying to complete my set of high-end raw Capped Bust halves. Lacking a decent '14, and '15/2. Nice collection so far. Anyway, good to be a member.

    Welcome.

    What grades are you talking on high end raw? I have 3 myself ranging from XF to AU58, all in PCGS holders for my type set.

    Hello, Max –

    Welcome! I, too, am relatively new. This board is a great place to talk with some pretty knowledgeable collectors.

    Brian-

    I like to keep them AU+ (as I see them, but I tend to be a bit conservative in my grading when I buy)

    Welcome Max. It is great to have another bust half collector on board. I think they are an underrated series, I have been collecting them for 5 years, mostly draped bust lately.
