silverhouse1 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 09/13/2016 10:10 pm Here is my first Draped Bust Half Cent. I am not a copper collector. I selected her for the price and nice original surfaces. I've seen this coin priced all over the place. I think it is a fine example. I recently took it to a dealer who said there was damage on the reverse on the "200". I told him if there was damage it never would have straight graded. Why do some dealers try to pull one over on you even though there is nothing wrong with a coin? His offer was 120.00 I wasn't selling, I just wanted to know what he thought. I love the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Earlier this year, at a show, I saw a really nice 1857 half that I liked that was in a straight graded PCGS EF-45 slab. The obverse looked good, but I turned it over and there was a big, deep gouge on the reverse. I probably would have bought it if not for that. IMO there's no way it should have been straight graded, but apparently someone at PCGS thought otherwise. Report this Post to the Staff
silverhouse1 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 09/14/2016 11:29 am I tried uploading the other two photo's I had but they are too big. One shows the reverse pretty good. But I don't see any damage. Damage to me means you can see it, it's non-negotiable. There is nothing wrong with this coin imo. Report this Post to the Staff

I recently purchased these: Both are pretty ugly, but they were cheap. Please note, these are the sellers images. Report this Post to the Staff
