After only selling for three years it was time to start buying again. I already had this variety in a lower grade but they look great side by side. All the clash marks and and die cracks sucked me in. I bought one other Bust Half but no images as of now. The first coin is the new one.
Oh yes! Lovely! Reminds me a little bit of mine, though mine is five grade points shy of yours and the semi-iridescent toning is not quite as pronounced on mine. Nor do I have the clashmarks or the CAC bean. I don't do Overton varieties. I'm just a Type collector. We're just a year apart here, though.
Nice coin - Does that mean you are keeping both? What is funny about it is my typeset - I actually have duplicates in dates and grades for various coins, but so far I am not selling those.
Duplicates don't bother me at all. There are many in my collection. If I like it and can see it in hand, I'll buy it.
