Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6384 Posts	Posted 06/30/2012 10:11 am Don't know about the variety, but it's a well-worn Half Dime with obverse damage. The obverse probably scrapes a G-4 grade for wear while the reverse barely earns an AG-3. Given the serious gouges on the obverse I would value the coin at no better than AG money, maybe $10 or so.

mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 07/04/2012 05:44 am Conder, Can you please elaborate upon the significance of LM-1 in terms any increased value over and above the previously stated approximate $ 10 retail price value of this rough Bust coin. Also where would be the optimal site one could go to on-line to research the type of info. I am currently inquiring about? Thank you much, mdpmedia Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 07/05/2012 09:47 am The LM-1 is an R-2 coin so it is rather common and would have no extra value over tyoe coin money. I don't know of any website that has information for identifying Bust Half Dime varieties. I have the standard reference in my library. Report this Post to the Staff
