    The 1836 Half Dollar. The lettered edge reads "FIFTY CENTS OR HALF A DOLLAR *" (notes: there are vertical lines between words and the word OR is on top of the HA).

    Real sweet... That's one set I've been putting off restarting... Like the $20 LC set I was also working on a $50 bustie set before the great sell off... I know once i restart them my budget will get fubar... maybe once my MS Morgan date set is a lil further along i'll restart on these :D

    Love all of the coins.
    These seriously look good in any condition IMO.

    I choked and spit out my coffee when I first opened this post because directly above, "Capped Bust" was this ad.

    A fantastic looking Bust Half. One of the best every coin designs in my opinion. I bought my first one years ago and now so have a large number of them.

    Here's a couple of them:

    This lady came today. Not as great as my first half but she fills the hole in the 7070 and for the price ($20), I couldn't say no.

    It actually had a starting bid of $40 OBO and I just tossed a $20 offer and figured maybe there'd be some wiggle-room. Did not expect it to be accepted :)
