Maybe the image is poor, but I don't like this picture of that coin.
I'd imagine this is not one of Russ' pictures.
Can we see a better image please?

But you could put some color on a pig's ear these days, and somebody will like it.

The image looks just like the coin. A "better" image would be deception.

I know this will ruin your day Russ, but I'm not thrilled with it either. Too bright in the center.

<< <i>Russ: If you really want me to say something positive about your 1833 Bust Half >>
It's actually not mine. It's one I sold on eBay a while back. Here's the auction description:
<< <i>Uh, well, yeah somebody scrubbed this puppy pretty good years ago. I think they must have stuck it in the album while it was still wet from the cleaning because it sure grew some funky colors! If weird is your thing, you'll LOVE this coin. >>

It is a cleaned POS but I really like it!! I bought a few similar bust halves today at a 1 day show in K-Zoo, Michigan. Even cleaned coins need some lovin'.
