Yeah, I’ve been casually looking for an 1800-1803 Bust dollar with E PLURIBUS UNUM showing clearly. Most that I’ve seen like that are in the VF...
Looks like you're primarily collecting from circulation, and maybe you've done a little travelling. :) That's a great way to start out! I still...
Here's mine, excerpted from a 1999 CNG catalog (sorry for the terrible image!): [ATTACH] Of note, the price I paid was very, very close to the...
Nothing more to add here that the experts haven't already said, except that most of these look like nice, original coins. I especially like the 2...

I haven't found a good LCS that I like yet, so I pretty much go to shows. The dealers I talk to there say basically the same thing about shows...

I believe it’s O-102a.
