**CAP BUST H/D!!..LOTS OF GOODIES!!**
Oh man. What a "cap" to one of my best weeks ever!! I got out to the field where I snagged the seated half dime and LC yesterday and really hit it hard. I got a Beautiful 1832 LC and a eagle button first. Then i got the best button ever for me an Infantry Eagle Button with a lot of gilt still on it!!!! Then the icing on the cake was another first for me, an 1835 Cap Bust Half Dime. That puts me at 15 Silvers and 8 Coppers for 2012. What a week!

That '32 LC is just ... almost ... uncirculated! Can't quite figure out how the damage got there or what caused it. The rest is gorgeous too. But the LC is superb!!!

No, I put olive oil on it to bring out the details for a picture. The coin has some dull spots on it and couldn't get a good focus .
