mikecollector New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 03/28/2025 6:08 pm Would like to see what this Half Cent would grade and to verify the variety. Crosslet with stems and I believe it might be a C-9. I have included a second set of images slightly off angle for a different perspective. I know the deeper nick in the left field and ding on the left rim will affect the grade, but I think we got a good one! From a recently inherited old collection from our father and grandfather that included 8 Half Cents and 7 large cents. Thanks for your grading help and insights. Report this Post to the Staff

Jimbo48 Valued Member United States 259 Posts	Posted 03/28/2025 7:01 pm Nice coin! I would think it is XF to AU. I have one that has F details and this is way better and should straight grade. Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18715 Posts	Posted 03/29/2025 10:03 am nice Half Cent. obv AU50, Rev XF45. the coin has very little marks. the rim nick and minor scratch in the field would not affect grade imo. if anything it would knock the price a tad. for me its not a concern at all. if she was mine I would verdicare soak her for a while to see if it could clean up the light spotting on the surfaces which probably occurred due to the way it was stored all those years. when I have a split grade where its only one grade separation I go with the obv so I'm at AU50 Report this Post to the Staff

Fayette1800 Pillar of the Community United States 1096 Posts	Posted 03/29/2025 1:30 pm Nice 1/2 cent. I'm at AU50 as well. I'm sure the coin does not look as washed out in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
