EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 2:58 pm I think this might be my first Half Dime that does NOT have clash marks. However it does have a strike through or lamination on the reverse mostly noticeable on the I in DIME. What do you think PCGS gave this? Report this Post to the Staff

Fayette1800 Pillar of the Community United States 1096 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 10:24 pm I'll say MS-63 as well. Nice coin Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18706 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 10:47 pm This is a pretty coin. I'm basing my grade off the reverse and I'll say they gave it MS63 Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 11:01 pm I want to call it AU58, but I keep coming back to those amazing fields. Not a Proof, unless EFL felt like spending five figures on a 1.3g coin. MS63+. Report this Post to the Staff
EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 05/05/2015 08:31 am PCGS AU55 In an old green holder. I like this coin as AU58. The lamination on the reverse would likely always keep it from MS but this coins fields are really nice. SsuperDdave I would like to get a proof of these in the future but probably one of the later dates so I don't spend quite that much for such a tiny coin!

peaece13 Valued Member United States 246 Posts	Posted 05/05/2015 08:44 am I admit that I know very little in terms of laminations, Half Dimes as well, but would a lamination really hold it back from MS as it would have been done at mint. Just curious, as I would have thought the only thing holding this coin down would have been the wear on the knee and head (if it is wear and not a weak strike/worn die.) Report this Post to the Staff
