Hey @robec, that 1832 half dollar is about the nicest AU53 I've seen! Sweet coin.
Thanks for the good words, my friend. I've appreciated sharing info and opinions back and forth with you! And now since you prompted me to...
Well, I had been wondering, "why has @Publius2 been so quiet lately?" But after chatting with him today I figured something out about this forum:...
Happy to attribute your Capped Bust Half Dime (1829 - 1837) for you - just PM me.
I don't see any evidence of any kind of harsh cleaning here, and I think this is a nice example of a 53, with some nice grunge on it. I suspect...
Absolutely agree with these three. Dave Kahn is one of my gurus. Takes the time to know my goals and understand my point of view, educating me in...
@Publius2 I sent you some info directly. You really hit on some of the attraction of the capped bust half dimes. You can dip your toes in, or you...
Like a few others here, I (foolishly) engaged in commerce with the US Mint, having a subscription in the mid 2000's to proof and silver proof sets...
@Revello, I appreciate the vote of confidence but if I had the ability to predict auction sales prices, I'd be a much richer man today! heheheh I...

@Publius2 The NGC coin was offered in Dave Perkins' 2019 Crain sale, but didn't meet reserve at that sale. I didn't start my set until April 2020...
@Publius2 if you ever get to KC again let me know! Regarding the rev G reclassification, the jury's still out for me too. I even have the...
Happy holidays all! @Publius2 , I enjoy your posts and really like the details on Reverse G in the images here. I'm wondering if you have an...
This was a fantastic read on a great story. I'm not quite as bullish as some; I'm going to say it will go for $2.6M (all in). I'm now tracking it...
@Mainebill that 1877-CC quarter is WOWZERS! Really nice coins, all of them, but that one is an eye-grabber. Although I was at first wondering...
If I got mad at PCGS every time they did something I didn't like, I'd have even less hair than I do right now! A couple of things ease the sting a...
@BlackberryPie here are three AU58+ half dimes. Two of them were in NGC slabs before I crossed them to PCGS for my registry set. The 1831 was NGC...
Hi friends. I think Wes has got that up and running again (using a hosting site called "Weebly" which is not a name he chose for his site!) I find...
