Big Busts

Okay, now that I have your attention, this is my pretty nice type coin. A decent example with original surfaces. I only have one other, so now, I have a nice pair of busts. Common date, but good details, and does not look abused, like other coins of its type. Please feel free to post your Busts.

Here's my best bust half so far! An 1826 O-102 capped bust in an old scratched up PCGS AU53 holder. It's got very fluid luster especially on the reverse.

 

Very nice! Has some crust and patina but it’s not too dark. Nice but of dirt against the devices as well.

 

Here are a few Busties of different flavor.

 

Lovely gold, @charlottedude . The 1811 with all the clashes is splendid. Probably the first time I use that word for a while

 

I'd post some bust pictures but I'm afraid I'd be banned from CT for life!

 

Here is my other Bust half, that I bought in July. As I said, now I have a pair:

 

Real or fake?

 

You got that right my friend

 

Famously real. A monument in Hollywood. Christina Hendricks is a cinematic icon, and acting skills have no bearing upon that aspect.

 

Here’s the 1807.

 

Keep those busts coming, folks. I know Christina is a tough act to follow, but this has turned out to be a great thread for a beautiful coin series.

 

I cracked this one out to fill a slot in my 7070 album.
