To my knowledge, this date is not attributed by Overton number. It would likely be called 1839 Reeded Edge, Normal Letters. The detail looks AU50. The surfaces don't show any luster though, so perhaps XF45. The color concerns me too. It's a $300 coin with $10 worth of silver in it. Well worth someone making quality, die struck counterfeits in silver. I'd have it authenticated by a major TPG or in-hand by a Bust Half expert. Good Luck!

P.S. I think it's genuine.

You are correct about Overton. I was hoping someone with access to the NGC site could try to match the Graham-Reiver # for me.
