EF-45. Too much wear on buckle for AU-50. How many bust halves do yo have Echizento?

I was think along the lines of VF-30 maybe VF-35. I'm about half way through completing a year set.

Most coins in higher grades can become expensive, but you can still find these in VF-EF and even at times in AU grade at a reasonable cost. The early dates are the ones that you will have to have a large wallet for.

I have a 1824/1 that I sent to ANACS for grading.Should be back soon. It has the same weakness of strike at 1 to 3 o'clock obverse just like yours echizento.Must be common for this date so you shouldn't be hit for that.I still say AU50-55.

Heh. I wish. That's the Top Pop 1815 Bust Half, an NGC MS66 which changed hands for almost $100,000 last year.

If this coin is a weak strike I can see XF-45+. My initial grade might have been too conservative.

I guess a weak strike is possible, but I don't see any indications of that on this coin. I could be wrong though and the higher grade would be nice.
