🥰 NEWP ….. a Lustrous Beauty as they stated ❤️
I’ve been looking for a clean example; Liberty with sweet expression sporting her visible curls ….. accompanied by a nice feathered Eagle 🥰
Voila! Truly a Cherry 🍒 pick because it was realized at the starting bid of $665 with no reserve 🤗
Common yet a lovely example with “nice luster that flows from the edges to the fields with original dirt adheres; testifying to its originality”
Let’s see your ladies

Very nice pickup!
Is the reverse misaligned/rotated?
Always looking for attractive rim toned Morgan and Peace dollars in PCGS or (older) ANA/ANACS holders!

Looks rotated about 20°. I imagine that's rather common for the type.

Yours appears to have retained significant frost, which is quite unusual for this series.

I used to own many, many CBHs, FHs and DBHs, but alas they are gone save for two. Here is one of them-

PF, that is truly a beautiful CBH.

Very nice, Paradisefound. I wanted one to show my family what an (almost) newly struck bust half looked like, won this in one of Sheridan's auctions:

Congratulations on your nice new acquisition.
On a related subject, you wrote “… it was realized at the starting bid of $665 with no reserve”. On a practical basis, a minimum starting bid is a reserve, as the coin wont sell if that minimum bid (reserve) isn’t met.

I see it now; I got confused with others where minimum is not met kind of auction 🤔

Is it an old picture? Here is her glamorous shot 🥰 pretty halo

I do a few things well--a couple of them quite well. Taking coin pictures isn't one of them.

@Paradisefound... Very nice acquisition.... What did your Mother say when you showed her the coin??? Cheers, RickO
1 -
🤔 Mom is amazed by how the coin would survived over 2centuries; she also said $$$ is a month of cost of living to my brother and his family in Bora Bora 😬
Mom doesn’t involve with my financial so I don’t hear the last part too often 🤗

A super nice addition 👌

Uh, I hate to be the skunk at this particular garden party, but if this individual continues to purchase coins that look like this one (“originality”?), there are going to be some nasty surprises down the road…

We have an OP image with 33 likes here and they sneer in pumpkinville.
"Two things are infinite: human stupidity and the universe; and I'm not sure about the universe."
-Albert Einstein-Mistakes are natural. But repeated mistakes without reflection are something else. That may be the “stupidity” he was referring to. In research, he admitted uncertainty openly. “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?” This shows humility. Even a Nobel laureate accepted doubt. That humility makes the quote less cynical and more observational.

Let’s continue with our Garden Party 🥰 and let skunk be skunk

Here, I'll add something else to your party. It isn't MS and it's not really close to MS, but it is original as all get-out

That appears to be the extent of the CBHs I currently own. :'(
I don't count RE halves as being part of the CBH series, so the handful of those that I own won't attend this party.

I really wished I could attend your party Mr. B 😘❤️🥰

My (substantive) suggestion would be as follows: Image your coin, and send the photos to Warren Mills at Rare Coins of New Hampshire or John Agre at Coinraritiesonline (highly respected dealers with substantial knowledge of this particular series); ask for their forthright opinion of your coin, its desirability for the vast majority of collectors and dealers, and - specifically - its degree of originality. I’m not presupposing anything, but it is my strong belief that, subsequently, you will no longer seek out coins such as this. A “bargain” is rarely one now… or, ever…

I bought coins that I like not even keys at more times than not ….. but for sure not driven by the bargain idea.
Don’t expect a ROI on my collection but rather a pure enjoyment ☺️@Pumpkinhead said:
