This is in an ANACS slab with a blue label. I believe this is an O-117 variety, which accounts for the weak rims on the reverse. How would you grade it?

I'll agree with VF-20; a nice, well-circulated but original example with no problems. Looks good!

My first impression was VF-20 but the more I look at this coin, the more I think VF-25.

A beautiful Bustie!

Please feel free to post it (shameless plug coming...) during the 32 days Of Capped Bust half dollars REVISITED starting the 1st of December in a US Classic Coin thread near you!

ANACS tends to great a bit high on these looks like some of their VF-30 examples.

So I'll say VF-25 true grade but VF-30 ANACS grade

Fenton nailed it. ANACS graded it VF30, a little more liberal than CCF would have graded it. Thanks for all of the grades.
