CAC - This coin is especially challenging as heavily circulated coins of this era are expected to show much more wear and tear. It is unusual for a coin, especially of this size, to remain problem-free. This piece once received a great strike, as everything important is still visible and sharp around the devices. This piece is graded CAC G6.

I wonder if CAC would sticker the 15 star Half Dime on my keyring?

The hole would probably get details....I'll leave it on the keyring....

What impresses me most about this coin is that, for the 200 years or so of its existence, nobody ever thought "this coin looks dirty, I think it'll look much better if I clean it up a bit".

I also note the scratches on both sides which, on a different coin, might have caused it to be classed as ungradable due to graffiti.
