    Not only am I wanting to collect the halves, I also want to collect the quarters, dimes and half dimes.

    I have a saved search that let's me know when new things pop up.

    This morning I found this 1831 Bust Dime in VF25 for $112, and scooped it up.

    These grades are good buys, IMO. XF's are almost $300.

    It's hard to tell from photos, but it looks like it has nice surfaces.

    I like it. It's got nice details for a 25, at least in my opinion, and the toning seems to accentuate them.

    Toning looks suspect to me.
