Thundercoin Pillar of the Community United States 675 Posts	Posted 11/25/2013 1:02 pm I have been practicing a few pictures (without much success) and figured I would post this one up for grading. I know that the pictures aren't great, but what are your thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Fayette1800 Pillar of the Community United States 1096 Posts	Posted 11/25/2013 2:38 pm I agree I would say VF-35 to XF-40 Report this Post to the Staff
Chancellor Sutler Pillar of the Community United States 1372 Posts	Posted 11/25/2013 3:00 pm I'd give it a 40. For what it may be worth ... Half Dimes are very difficult to photograph. It depends upon the camera I'm sure, but some cameras, even in macro mode, just won't allow you to get close enough. I have an 1829 that I need to takea couple shots of since getting a new camera, but my old Kodak Easy Share ... wasn't "gettin' it". I just couldn't get close enough.

Thundercoin Pillar of the Community United States 675 Posts	Posted 11/25/2013 4:01 pm I have it as an XF-40 in my notes, so I guess I am not far off. The obverse is a little weaker than the reverse in my opinion. Thanks for the comments, it is one of my favorite coins. Report this Post to the Staff
nolawyer Pillar of the Community United States 763 Posts	Posted 11/25/2013 4:58 pm I vote 40 as well. It's nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18714 Posts	Posted 11/25/2013 7:51 pm VF35. don't think the reverse is strong enough for 40 Report this Post to the Staff
dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 11/26/2013 07:34 am I don't see how it's not an EF40 Report this Post to the Staff
Night-Hawk Pillar of the Community United States 1002 Posts	Posted 11/26/2013 12:06 pm EF40 here also. Those pics are not bad at all, if you could take it out of the flip before shooting they would probably be much better. Report this Post to the Staff
