bbddbb10 Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 02/11/2013 11:42 pm This is an 1835 Half Cent that I purchased. The toning of the coin is more of a dark brown than a bluish black as the picture shows. I am curious as to what you guys would think this coin is worth. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 02/12/2013 12:12 am In Scottish terms, this coin is a wee ripper! Graded at about VF30, this coin has a cat. value of about $90. They don't often turn up at most dealers, so the dealer would sell hold off selling, at somewhere the book value. Report this Post to the Staff

supgog Pillar of the Community Israel 2420 Posts	Posted 02/14/2013 9:49 pm I think XF40 is more appropriate for this coin. Report this Post to the Staff
bbddbb10 Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 02/14/2013 9:55 pm It does have some small spots of green. I think this might be called PVC? How would this affect the value of the coin? Report this Post to the Staff

Penny Guy Pillar of the Community United States 531 Posts	Posted 02/23/2013 9:34 pm I would agree with the VF grades above. You have a Cohen-2 variety. There were two reverse dies used in 1835, yours exhibits the S and T of STATES spaced closer together than variety 1. Nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff
bbddbb10 Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 02/23/2013 9:47 pm That is interesting. Is there any difference in values between one die and another? Report this Post to the Staff
