With me since 1976.
Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?
A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.
A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.14 -

My favorite of the brood? Maybe this one. Phone pics do it no justice.
Other passions include golf, Moto Guzzi motorcycles, and Euro motorcycles in general.

Don't think I've shown either of these lately. ( Although I may have-- I'm old--give me a break.)
Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.8 -

I was going to create a thread called "Upping my Capped Bust half dime - up yours" but then I thought that would bring the ban hammer down on my head. So I'll share a half dollar here instead.
This is my 1825 O-108 in NGC/CAC 58. I didn't have a bust 50c piece so I had one of the elder statesmen of the Bust Half Nut Club (Steve H) walk around with me at the Pittsburgh ANA in August '23 (holy cow, that's 2 years ago already) and we found this one at Eye Appealing Coins. It had the right level of sincerity on it.

I assume this is another dark coin "whitened" with bright axial lighting.

Of course, standard True Views, I've never seen a nice white down at that grade, here are some in hand shots.

That's not bad. That's not what I'm talking about, though. I've had several very dark to black coins whitewashed with bright axial lighting. This 42-O small date in hand is dark brown in color.

I tried, lord knows I did.1 -
I came across this thread that started while I was away. Always a good thread if it has CBH's. I have been able to collect a few of these along the way.
