Lot Description

Ex Floyd Farley  Charlton Meyer introduced Tim to Floyd Farley soon after Tim joined the Bust Half Nut Club.  On occasion Floyd offered club members selections from his hoard of capped bust halves.  This one became available in September 1992 and Tim was happy to add it to his collection.  No wonder.  The russet toning is beautiful and the strike first rate.  An ancient disturbance beneath star 2 is buried under the original toning and will require a loupe to spot.   Estimate: $600 to $700
