jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 563 Posts	Posted 07/20/2026 1:22 pm I'm considering this 1824 capped bust half, mainly because I believe it is an O-114. These are seller's photos and I'm wondering if you think the hit by the rim at K4 on the obverse or at K3 on the reverse would details it? Thanks for your opinions! Report this Post to the Staff

psuman08 Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 07/20/2026 5:06 pm I think it is a details coin. Over dipped and the mark at S13. Still a tougher Overton. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18758 Posts	Posted 07/21/2026 08:31 am I'm at XF40 for a grade. typical weakness in areas. here is a NGC slabbed coin that graded straight with these rim marks. now there are questions as to what caused these marks. if they were mint related or post mint. the marks on your coin are in non-key areas of the coin and are small. she probably had an old cleaning and retoned. lighting is weak on these photos so it leaves open the possibility that we are not seeing the coin as it would be in hand. there is also another mark at K8 reverse. with all of that, I think there are too many chances that it would not grade straight. I'm not into varieties but based on an O-114 I found and PCGS pricing for the grade, I would want to be pretty certain it would grade straight. the other aspect to this is if you are accumulating a set of overton's, are you willing to take that chance or is it better to try and locate a slabbed coin or one that its fairly certain it would grade straight Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11932 Posts	Posted Yesterday 3:08 pm AU53 IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
