    I like it. Rather have a VG bust half dime though

    (1833 LM-5/V10, if anyone is keeping score)

    YES! Now that is how a well-struck Bust Half dollar should look like. Now if they were only affordable....

    Perhaps if that first one has lacquer, someone can hit it with a "Q-tip" and make it look like the 2nd one. image

    Nice 1818 proof, but I do not care for the toning.
    I collect Capped Bust series by variety in PCGS AU/MS grades.

    Actually - look at how flat that strike is on the 34 for a proof issue---- look at the birds talons, arrow shaft and leaf area.
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"
