I'm going through my dad's collection and he wants to sell this one. I was wondering if anybody had any info on the condition and possible value?

Thanks!
Dan

that reverse is PO-01 in my opinion and that is even if it would grade because it may be worn to much for even a poor grade but the Obverse looks like FR-02 or even AG-03 condition. The surfaces doesn't look original and I do know counterfeit coins of this type are out there and since I do not know the series very well I can not comment on authenticity nor can I give a value. There are others on the board that know the series allot better than I do and will leave that part to them

Big difference in grade between the obverse and reverse. The obverse looks AG-3, but the reverse is too worm IMO to give a grade at all. Still an early half and worth holding onto.
Rest in Peace

The obverse looks full G-4 to me, while the reverse looks like a 1-2. I would call it AG3 details, but the surfaces look messed with pretty severely. If genuine though, the Bust coinage is always in high demand and definitely still has some value.

Bad looking coin. Kind of a risk to buy. If I bought I would instantly send to TPG.
