Here are a few old dirty 50 cent pieces. The picture is huge and I've erased some of the marks on the slabs/flips

LOL. Thanks to another fellow I've started picking these up every so often. It's been rather fun.

Take Care

Please send this one to me for further review (I'm sure you won't miss the old dirty thing):

A good start to a nice collection! Bust halves in circulated grades are a lot of fun. The higher grades are not quite as fun, for some reason. Do you have an Overton book yet? Attributing a group of raw busties can have some surprises!

Chuckle, Yeah I got the wrong one though. The search continues

Thanks, gotta have the old lady start building more web-sites, LOL. BTW, if your watching the news they just arrested the dad/judge down in Aruba. It's getting stranger all the time...

I simply love old crusty bust halves. I have found it to be a great challenge to look for nice xf-au bust halves with an original look that haven't been damaged or scratched- when you find a nice example, it's worth the search......

I saw an 1819 STMAN had on another list and it was S P E C T A C UL A R. His had the original look but would have graded AU58 or MS63 easily!
