Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7439 Posts	Posted Yesterday 9:45 pm I like it even more than you guys. Photos are a bit dark, trying to decide if the darken areas is gunk or toning ..... at least 45 and maybe AU, leaning toward the lower end of AU. Nice Half Cent 8 out of 10 for eye appeal Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 12040 Posts	Posted Today 12M ago AU55. Late state dies as the rims seem to lack detail as the dies fail. Hardly any wear. Small verdigris near the devices starting to appear and a verdi-care bath can stabilize the coin so that the coin surfaces don't continue to corrode. 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."
