It's a wee ripper!
Satisfying coin to have, if the price is right.

What's a "ripper"? Haven't heard that expression yet. =)

LTMets44: I guess that you have never been to Scotland......
"Wee" = very small
"Ripper" = excellent

Looks like a very nice coin.B4 buying I would check out the bottom part of the 8 on the obverse.

I noticed that. The coin is on ebay so this is all I would have to go off of. It will most likely go for more than what I can afford.  I will most likely post the link here is case some of my CCF Family member are interested and have deeper pockets than I do. |

What do you think is going on with the bottom half of the 8?

Seems like a nice coin. Still has a good amount of luster remaining but the strike seems a tad weak. I am not familiar with the characteristics of the die pairs for bust Half Dimes so I don't know if this typical of that die pair. |

Probably a die chip on the center of the eight. I have alot of Lincoln cents with the center of the 9's missing just like this.

I'm surprised I overlooked that. Anyway, I have been out bid and with the feedback that you just showed me, I will not raise my bid.
Thank you.
