Thanks...they don't have to be Half Dimes, they could be dimes, or quarters, or half dollars, or...or...man I wish the lottery would get the numbers right this week so I can afford all the coins I want! |

Guess I'm the only one, but this coin looks dipped to me. The heavy marks on the cheeks and wear on the feathers also seem to indicate more circulation than an AU would show. Note the remaining tone in the U. Course cleaning doesn't rule it out necessarily, but I always like a natural look. Not sure about this one.

I will definitely post a picture when I received it. Seller said it has a light gray tone so maybe the color is off in the picture.

Needless to say I'm not good at taking pictures. This is the best I could do. It looks original to me. Steel color.   |

Nice crusty original patina  It looks much better in your pics, the seller pics look pale and dipped- must be funky lighting. Nice strike too with the fully formed stars and definitely a solid AU coin  |

Shatsi, excellent pictures as far as I'm concerned. Beautiful coin too.

Shatsi, I like the crust factor on your baby bust in your pics...when you posted the first set of seller's photos I was not a fan of the color. Great XF-AU example of an LM-2 R-3. Is that a crack from the bust to S1? You have a great looking scarce die marriage for 1831. @ $189 I would pick as many of these as possible.

It's a very nice coin. I'm not a grading expert, but I'm thinking it might run EF 45. Those that say AU 50 may know more than me...
