    Least you forget, I'm a Bust Half Dollar collector and here is something recently picked up and have never shown before on this or any other forum. An 1825 (R-3), O-108 Capped But Half Dollar in VF-20/25 condition. Notice on the reverse, the (ED) and (AM) being connected along with the last arrowhead and (A) almost touching each other, there you have it, along with some other minor indicators. The colors on this coin are unbelievable and (as usual) the picture does nothing to enhance it's beauty.

    Thanks' Frank. I'll need it. I plan on visiting Steve Herrman this summer (you know) and he *hopefully will agree on my attributions and then I can get into the club. Otherwise it will be just another ALMOST in my life like a Master's Degree and Karate Blackbelt. Oh, so close (3 hr's) in one and breaking some boards in another, but I just lost interest...

    Just have a few extra pieces, so that you'll be way over the limit.

    why did they feel ( no pun ) the need to put a big chested woman on a coin?

    Because men designed it. If women designed it, it would be different
