Message:: [QUOTE="Jim M, post: 742724, member: 4791"]The 24 is nice.   The 13 I have a problem with. I dont like how strong the dentils are on this coin. I have seen alot of the 13's and I dont recall seeing one with dentils so distinct and perfectly centered on the coin.  Not saying the coin is bad, just saying if you REALLY don't know your stuff, your gonna get your fanny handed to you on ebay with the busties.   take a look at how many views this coins has, how many bids have been placed. Keep in mind there is an organization called Bust Halve Nut Club. It has about 190 members, probably 100 of which surf ebay on a regular basis. Dont expect there to be a santa claus hiding out there for a new collector to snag. It can happen but the odds are really stacked against it.  I am fairly good at the bust series, I have several hundred of them and know alot of members over at BHNC.  Some really know their stuff, authors of such books as Bust Half Fever. Buy from people who deal in them on a regular basis, not somebody selling off their collection.  Want to buy some coins from China? This set has been hit BIG TIME with that crap.  Be careful my friend, tread water lightly because there are many a sharks swimming around out there.  Just a little insight for you. I dont want to discourage your interest in the Busties, I also dont want you regretting a purchase a few years from now when you go to sell.  Good Luck my friend. May the bustie force be with you.[/QUOTE]
