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

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.

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.
