A very nice Christmas gift from my dad - look at the pics, these are amazing coins! This is the full set of the Bust type coins, the silver dollar, half dollar, quarter, dime and half dime. I find it interesting that the only one with a face value stamped on the coin is the quarter with "25 C" on the reverse, and all the others have no face value stamped on them.

Beautiful !

GREAT SET/GIFT!!! I bet that 1800 Dollar EF 45 would probably go a grade higher in today's market. Congrats on the addition to the "collection" side of the stack...I assume.

Wow! My dad wouldn't even give me a clad quarter unless mom made him. Is this from his collection or he bought them special for you? Need a new brother?

Oh, and not to be picky but these are usually called Draped Bust coins, I was expecting to see the next series, the Capped Bust which are often called just Bust coins. Yours are better.

A set like that would *never* leave my collection. Congrats on putting the set together :D.

That bust dollar looks very nice but if you google the grading company you may decide to remove it from that holder.

That's a hell of a Christmas present! The dollar alone is $5k+ @XF-45 :confused_ma:

Very nice!
From a long time scrounging coins and deals, I never came across a Busted!
Great gift.

I know - my dad's been a major numismatic collector since before I was born. He's had these in his collection forever, and he's been slowly handing them down to us lately; his logic is he'd rather see us enjoy them now than have to wait for him to kick the bucket. Thanks dad! :23_30_104:
