    Bust Half dollar fan. There are a couple of groups that specialize in Bust coinage. One is Johan Reich Collectors Society (JRCS), and the other is Bust Half Nuts. I will look up the links, if you give me a day or so.....

    You will like Bust halves. The reference is Early Half Dollar Die Varieties by Al C. Overton. Bust halves are known by their "Overton" variety numbers.
    I have a really old "Revised Edition" copyright 1970, Colorado Springs.

    I've got a couple of decent bust halves (VF) and will likely be expanding my collection in the future.
