numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 8792 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 12:11 pm $450. This coin is listed in Randy Wiley and Bill Bugert's Complete Guide to Liberty Seated half dollars as WB-104. It is the Speared Olive Bud Variety which they were able to attribute to the Confederate States of America occupation of the New Orleans Mint in 1861 through their ejection sequence analysis. Only 31 coins of this variety have been certifies by PCGS. Thoughts? Thanks! There are two horizontal die marks to the left of the top olive in the reverse "Spearing the olive." From the Wiley and Bugert Reference: IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS Help me optimize my photo setup: http://goccf.com/t/411871 Edited by numismatic student 12/02/2021 2:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 11919 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 12:59 pm maybe AU53 but if whatever is going on at the wing tip is not planchet related its most likely a details coin Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 67753 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 1:30 pm That would be my concern as well. Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4024 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 4:06 pm AU50. I don't see the wing tip as a major issue, personally, I think it can be conserved with a little acetone and/or xylene. In hand pics may tell more. Edit: coming back to this one in my computer, that wing tip does look a bit problematic. My Buffalo Complete Circ.

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 2716 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 8:03 pm Interesting coin. I'm aware of this variety, and the attribution analysis. I've never seen one in real life. I think it's a pretty scarce critter. Regardless of grade, nice pickup. Report this Post to the Staff
