A recent upgrade released from an ICG slab.

What do you think they gave this coin?
(I'll give you some Overton practice too! )


Thanks for looking!

C'mon Moe another beautiful bust half dollar? Do you have all of them yet?

Based on the die cracks I'm going with O-102a. AU53. It's a beauty

AU55 to me, but I have very little experience with this series, though I enjoy the design a lot, wish I had more than the one cleaned example I own now.

Cleaning sure doesn't appear to distract, it looks way better than my lone example. I think the coin has a bit more detail than AU50 maybe 53 or 55 but not much higher. I think it's a really nice type coin regardless of the cleaning, it's not harsh nor distracting, just a bit bright.

Overton's book is on my books to aquarie list, I've jsut run into so many I need the past few months my book buying fund is empty right now. Still need the Noyes large cent 4 volume, 5 book, set first and that will probably set me back around $400-500 (ouch).
