Nice clear picture, I would grade it at VF-25.
Rest in Peace

This coin looks like a weak strike, and is probably slabbed VF-30 or so. For overall detail, I'd grade it VF-20 but the surfaces look like a higher grade than that.

I think it is a very nice coin with good color, a little dark on the reverse. I think it is a solid VF-20 and make have the chance to stretch a little to 25.

So who graded it and what did they call it? (The holder doesn't look like any of the top eight or nine companies.)

Isn't that a (somewhat) older ANACS slab?

Based on all the responses it looks like ANACS was right on and if anything on the conservative side. Thanks everyone for your time.

VF20 was a solid grade for that coin. Your friends who thought it was overgraded were off the mark.

Well the one guy wanted to buy it from me so that probably explains it. The other person I barely know but he claims to be pretty knowledgeable on grading. I'm just learning to grade so they had me a little worried.

Nope. Just a really nice, original Bustie, prototypical for the grade. Nothing else looks like a circulated Bust Half, and that's a good thing.

My error I couldn't see the ANACS logo on the insert on the reverse.

Your bust half dollar is graded appropriately. It isn't over graded and I don't see where the people who told you that were coming from.. Don't listen to them on anything because they don't know what they are talking about.
