FINDING THE WORLD’S BEST CAPPED BUST HALF DIME
By Ron Guth
If you’re a type collector who only wants the best, it helps to know what coins are available and their provenance. The price history of the finest known examples tells us what they have sold for in the past and what they might bring today. Provenance tells us what prominent collectors held these coins in the past and who owns them today.
The Capped Bust Half Dime design appeared from 1829 to 1837, inclusive. All dates of this type are common, though there are some major varieties that are scarce and some individual die varieties that are rare. The following list includes some of the finest Mint State examples known to exist of the Capped Bust Half Dimes:

This list may not be complete and should be used only as a guide for further investigation. The list relies primarily on auction appearances, population reports, and registry listings; it may not include many private transactionsor institutional holdings. The list is dynamic, as ownership and grades can, and do, change over time.

In response to the idea that the JR Newsletter move from a weekly format to a monthly format, we received a number of responses, which are posted here without attribution to specific responders. Additional opions are still welcomed:
“Good idea!”
“Bi-weekly at first? Then move it to monthly if no progress is made?”
“I think you are correct. Monthly might be best, if something demands immediate attention, you can make an exception at that moment.”
“The main issue is lack of contributions these days. I’m not sure going to monthly would solve this but it might help – you’d have to send out a reminder or two. Biweekly (twice a month) might be another alternative to consider. It would be great if we could get more contributions.”
“My opinion is to stay weekly. Only recently have we had weeks with no contributions.”
