Share your Bust coins

Nice coin, ldhair. I can see why you like it.
(at first I thought they were 2 different coins)

Occasionally. You have to reserve the coin at a level where you are making a profit. The advantage of efficient auction companies is to get maximum exposure of coins, whether good for grade, under or over-graded material into the marketplace. I don't want to be someone sitting on coins for months and months at high retail levels. For me efficient auction companies can be win-win situations.

 

I picked up the following "Bust" quarter in a dealer's discard box. It took over a month to get it graded, etc. but there it is, being sold at auction with a profit.

Very nice.

 

Old thread. But I like old threads.
This one had a hard life and I messed up the image.

 

I got the focus a bit better on this one. Scratch and all it came to me many years ago for almost nothing.

 

I'm busted.

Love the color on your '29 too!

 

Here's another of mine

 

Nice coin there. Looks like a 45+ obv with a very solid 50 rev to me. With that attractive coloration, I'm surprised that one didn't get a bump to AU 50.

 

Here is a Bust dollar I picked up at a Vermont gold buyer's shop for $1000:

My only concern was the silver metal in the "R". Not sure what it is but it graded OK.
