You vs PCGS. This coin marks the beginning of my liberty Seated half dime odyssey of collecting the entire series slabbed!   Edited by EFLargeCents

I would guess AU55. Tough to see any luster on the pics

AU-55 seems fair on this one.

I'll call this one an AU-53. Very nice coin!

I don't know what it is about Seateds - they're bland and characterless to me in Mint State, but possibly my favorite design in AU. They acquire such a wonderful circulation patina.

AU53 and I agree with the above comment, unless they are uncirculated with an amazing rainbow toning that isn't too dark or heavy.

I like the seated series, probably my favorite, a lot of history transpired during their mintage years. Here's the grade. Folks were right on and all around this one!   |

You mean like this, right?    For the record, this one's the Top Pop NGC PR68* CAM, from Eric Newman's collection. $44k at Heritage, almost 4 times the price of any other example of the date ever offered there. |

AU55 is a fair grade. I saw almost no wear and thought it might have been bumped to MS.
