<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nightowl, post: 1253639, member: 18614&quot;]My capped bust half is slabbed AU-55 and it&#039;s not going into the album. The half dime is still in a staple type 2x2 holder, while this one is in a snaptite 2x2 from capital plastics. It&#039;s the penny size one, and it&#039;s a wee bit sloppy, but adequate for now.</p><p><br /></p><p>I checked out Byron Reed&#039;s collection, and I guess this is a JR-2 from what I can gather. The shield is quite distinctive, and compares favorably with that variety. </p><p><br /></p><p>My &quot;no rays&quot; shield nickel is an 1880 ... raw, which I bought a year or more ago. That one&#039;s not in the album either. I need some early copper, and a few seated coins to finish it up.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nightowl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
