<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ksparrow, post: 7844764, member: 7638&quot;]I was looking for a bust half that had the &quot;fresh out of the mint&quot; look without costing a fortune, more or less as a type coin, and one that I could show to non collecting friends and family so that they could appreciate the design.&nbsp;&nbsp; I won this on Sheridan Downey&#039;s most recent auction,&nbsp; AU58 with very few marks, and some interesting double profile stuff around the face and neck.
