The 1826 is extremely nice.

Jeff, it is one of the nicest bust halves I have seen I wish I could capture the luster with my camera... this coin has the most flash I have ever seen on a bust half as well.

Lordy Lordy those are some nice coins!

Too bad about the spot on the 1826, it's a bit distracting. Due to carbon?

Nice die breaks going on between the stars on the '26. What's up with the UNITE on the reverse? Kind of cool looking.
LostDutchman
what your seeing on the reverse is just the way that those dies wore... they kind of spread out and any fine edges will cause those runners

Wow, very nice!

Outstanding pieces in my opinion! The '26 has incredible eye appeal...
