Beautiful. They look much better than the one I have. Have you posted these on the Half Dime Forum?

 

Capped:
Very nice coins, especially that first one.
Good luck.

 

bone, I really like the reverse strike on your 1832

 

^^^ Thanks, when I purchased the coin, it was listed on EBay as a Half Dollar, LOL... If I'm not mistaken, that is a cud on the shield of you 1832.

On the 1832:
Unless it is from strange toning, that is one heck of a repunched F in OF.
Not listed in Breen or Cherrypickers.

 

L&M note that it is a "die bulge" in in the top of shield for reverse X.


Yes, the F is doubled to the right and is noted a diagnostic for1832 LM-12 (reverse X). The same reverse (X) was also used on the 1833 LM-8.

 

very nice and handy as a diagnostic.
