O-Mint New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 1:26 pm New member here but familiar with the community. Decided to join because I am looking for opinions on the grade of this coin. Picked up this 1839 O Half Dime a few days ago. Hope the images are good enough. Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25387 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 2:05 pm Welcome, O-Mint! It's a nice acquisition from the New Orleans Mint's second year. Sharper images would help with determining the grade, but it looks like a beauty to me. Of course, I'm partial to anything from NOLA. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
O-Mint New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 2:35 pm I will post some hopefully sharper images soon when I can. I am also partial to New Orleans. Hoping to complete a New Orleans mint set. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 6:39 pm Best to remove it from the holder first. Do you see how the plastic obscures the detail? Edited by Coinfrog 10/15/2022 7:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 7:43 pm Much better. Hair and bust line details still not sharp. I'll venture a grade of VF-35. Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 10/17/2022 12:52 pm I don't think this coin would straight grade due to the cleaning. If it did it would be net graded down at least 5 points (maybe even 10), so if it straight graded I guess VF30. It's really more like an XF Details - Improperly Cleaned coin.
