Bust Halves
We have recently acquired some
great Early and Bust Halves. We like R-4 and better varieties, and
halves with nice eye appeal. We have several 1795's including an
R-6 and two slabbed coins, several 1806's incl. an R-7 with 11 known and
a gorgeous AU-55, a nice 1807 Small Stars in a PCGS holder, and several other nice PCGS and NGC
halves. We have more than 20 halves that are R-5- or better.
