What do you think of my FIRST Capped Bust?

Hey, you said you're comparing photos. Why not go pro?

It seems to be a VF, but VF30 is a bit too optimistic...

I don't have the time to look up the Overton # for you, but have a look at this web site and give it a try:

O-110

@Treashunt

 

I

I will definitely give it a look and take everything into consideration!

 

Overton 119. NOT O-110. The only small letter reverse. Hard to find, so I don't mind the reverse scratches. Nice coin. VF details. Worth about $150 on the market due to the small letter reverse, even with the problems.

 

Awesome I got it for much less than that! A great coin for a starting collection I feel

 

That's why I always ask for 'backup' John. I never get these right, but I keep tryin'.

 

@green18 if it makes you feel better I didn't even know what overton was till recently!

 

The first time I had this revelation I auctioned a Fine condition 1809 that I figured would sell for $100-$125. When it sold for $450 I literally said, "YAYYYY! ..... uh oh...."

I didn't know what I had. Could have been worth three times that much but I was clueless. So I bought the Overton book. One weekend later at the local coin show, it paid for itself and then some with a R.5 1811.

 

I likewise have a little homemade Cherrypicker's guide.

 

Sorry, family affairs yesterday.

 

Thanks, Ken

O-119 looks right


Grade? VF, low end, cleaned and reverse scratches-- from United to the wing

 

Thank you @Treashunt, now I just need to work on my grading skills ha I always seem a couple grades high
