Greetings

I was looking for a little input on this half dollar. The coin is supposedly mint from a roll of like coins. Never been cleaned with some (what appears to be) slight die cuds/doubling on WE TRUST. All opinions are welcome.

Thanks
Ben

MS-61. I'm not sure what they look like mint, but that's my best guess so far.

I say ms61. I think the marred rims are keeping it from going higher. Also looks to be some marks across the legs of the horses. Nice coin. This was the first old commem that I purchased. I think the old commems have much more character than the newer ones.

By the way, this is one of the few coins that appears to purposely display a rough-rocky like surface to give it an "old western" feel.
I doubt the age caused that much roughness on the surface and it looks like it was minted that way. Pretty neat.

I really really really wanna get me one of these. I think I'm just gonna settle on a very low grade and get a better one when I have more funds.
