Hey Kyle, thanks and that is a great idea

CoinAddict · November 1, 2006 1:04PM

I figured it would be a lot easier to link a single thread to each thread then having to make a giant list of links each time a new one is posted.

JRocco · November 1, 2006 1:11PM

Great idea. I edited a message in the 31 thread.
Thanks Kyle- that is really nice of you

CoinAddict · November 4, 2006 4:16PM

Added the 1830.

This thread is a good idea. Now you will need to edit it twice a week for 14 or so weeks. You may set a record for the most editing of a single post.

Bruceswar · November 9, 2006 2:47AM

Great Idea and Thanks!

Good morning folks.

bidask · November 29, 2006 9:36PM

How about a series on the overdates?

MikeKing · November 30, 2006 3:14AM

thanks for keeping this list up to date Kyle!

Longacre · November 30, 2006 3:17AM

Great idea!

CoinAddict · November 30, 2006 7:17AM

It is my pleasure. I love making these kind of threads.

tradedollarnut · November 30, 2006 7:19AM

How can it be a complete series if it stops in 1836?

Leiana · November 30, 2006 7:23AM

The idea was for it to be a photographic reference to different Overton numbers of the lettered edge halves.

I like having them all in one place!

Thanks!

tradedollarnut · November 30, 2006 7:25AM

Ahhh - lettered edge. That's different ... why didn't he say so?

CoinAddict · November 30, 2006 7:29AM

I just edited the title to make you happy, TDN.

Kyle,

Thanks for keeping this update thread current. One of these years you might become an official Bust Half Nut.

CoinAddict · December 21, 2006 10:52AM

One can only hope.

mozin · December 24, 2006 5:26AM

I am ready to post my 1815 when the thread gets started today. Hope our 1815 volunteer remembers.

OKbustchaser · December 24, 2006 9:41AM

CoinAddict,

Thank you for doing such a fine job updating this thread for the past few months.

JRocco · January 19, 2007 2:23PM

CoinAddict · January 19, 2007 3:36PM

No problem, Tom. It is my pleasure.

Since there is very little activity lately in postings for this Capped Bust Half Dollar series, I guess CU forum members have not been buying Busties.

I have a lot of coins ready to post, but I do not like to make consecutive postings. If you want me to post coins, somebody else needs to show a coin first.

Great looking coins edmerlr
It is a pleasure seeing some of the CBH's in your collection.
Each posting of yours is being viewed and admired.
Welcome.

edmerlr · July 3, 2007 4:04AM

this coin has been moved to the 1831 thread

rareCanadian · September 8, 2007 10:05AM

Technically I am outside of the date range of this thread but being that the coin is a bust half another member of this board (Tydye) and good friend thought that everyone here might appreciate it. It is a coin that I picked up last week as part of a trade. Eleven examples are known but only four that are in proof 63 or better. The coin is one of the first branch mints that was noticed by col lectors for its rarity in the 19th century and the first coin struck by the New Orleans mint. Early documentation shows that "less then twenty were struck" the key word being less. Quite a few examples are known in EF even though they all started life as proof.
This particular coin has an interesting provenance including At water, Colonel Green, Reed Hawn et al. So without futher ado introducing the latest addition to our Americas collection the 1838 O Half Dollar;

CappedBustDimes · September 8, 2007 10:21AM

rareCanadian,

All I can say is Wow and thanks for sharing!

BLcoinnut · November 10, 2007 1:32PM

Anybody want to start an 1807 draped bust thread?

PQMorgans · December 28, 2007 2:32AM

I really enjoy this thread

Danegeld · February 13, 2008 5:57AM

Good looking thread and some awesome coins to boot.

Take Care

stinkinlincoln · July 1, 2009 6:30PM

A big bump for that 38-O BM proof. WOW! What a coin!

Also, any one have any info on the 39-O CBHD?

rec78 · October 22, 2013 9:56AM

Thought this thread might be worth reviving.

rhedden · October 23, 2013 4:52AM

Thanks for raising this thread from the dead. I had the one missing variety from 1813 all along, and I was able to add it to the 1813 thread. Now the trouble is that many of the other threads are missing pictures from 6 years ago, so I think the bust nuts among us should get to work and update them!
