This might be the one in best shape that I got in a junk silver lot, but it seems that at least one of the more worn halves I posted earlier is worth more. They minted a lot of these Columbians.

These are often found in junk bins due to their large numbers.

VF-35 and straight grade, scratch is small enough not to "details" it.
