    Here's one I bought , and for the love of me can't see why it's in a details slab . There's no sign of harsh cleaning such as hairlines .

    1818, O.105

    Some unique die clashing on this variety, particularly the arrow clashes behind the cap. They're very similar to the clashes visible on late die-state examples of the rare 1818 B-9 Capped Bust quarter, although not quite as heavy and not nearly as dramatic.

    Thanks, ldhair. Those two are pretty "meaty" :D And both were among some of the first bust halves I purchased.

    Here are two raw ones. Both are scarcer varieties that I paid common money for.

    1809 O.107 "III Edge"

    That's a great coin, Rusty! I love the massive die crack at 3 o'clock on the late die-state, and your example looks very original :)
