[QUOTE="Magnus87, post: 8035138, member: 96372"]I’ve dealt with Jim Long sporadically for many years & have enjoyed the experience. If you’re curious about a coin, I’ve found him reasonably forthcoming with phone descriptions, etc. He’s a long-time presence at local coin shows here in the Balto-Wash-Northern Virginia area (& presumably further north). In person he comes across as knowledgeable, professional — and a canny, engaging guy to pass the time with. (In addition to bust halves, he also seems to have a particular interest in early US copper.) My own bust half accumulation (186 & counting) features a number from Jim as well as David Kahn, Brian Greer, the usual-suspect auction houses (esp. Great Collections) and, notably, the now-retired Stu Keen — as well as a great number of pleasant finds spread across three continents. And, if you haven’t already, get yourself a guide book to the series! I use Overton/3rd ed. but there are others out there which have their own enthusiasts. Get your dealer contacts to talk about their favorites.[/QUOTE]
