It seems like a lot of forum members have recently turned to the gorgeous big bustie CBH's as a focus of numismatics.

I know I have and I will enjoy the future of collecting in this series for years to come. Apart from this I like Capped Bust Dimes and Bust Quarters.

Just sign in here if you started collecting CBH's before 2 years ago.

Also, Post a favorite CBH if you want

I have bought more Capped Bust Halves in the last 2 years than I ever have, but I started with buying just a few >2 years ago. I could kick myself for not jumping on the bandwagon earlier when nice XF's were 80 bucks.

I'm kinda fond of this 1827 in AU53. It's an O-109 which is a R4. great in-hand color.

I'm afraid that I have been collecting CBH's a "few" more years then you guys. In fact, here is one that I actually received in pocket change.

For me it has almost been 2 years exactly. I purchased my first bustie on January 26, 2006.

If you posed this question 2 yrs ago, I could answer yes.

Not hardly. Nor in '64. And would be ashamed to admit it if I had.

Going on 4 yrs, I wish I had started earlier. Here is the one that got me started.

Nice lookin' 1830, Fishteeth! Appears to be an AU or nearly so. I got started with an 1813. Totally mushy obverse, and heavily clashed (with a few scratches too) and an AU reverse. Loads of luster and color. I thought I had pics of that one...guess not uploaded. Well, here is an 1812 I fancy.....
