Another ebay cherry picked Half Cent (after my 1826 C-2 a couple months ago). This was even listed specifically as a normal date variety!. Anyway, I don't have it in hand yet, but what do you think? I have found this variety (C-4) to be very elusive problem free and in higher grades, but quite common in AG/G with environmental damage. This one to me is Fine details, reverse corrosion, obverse is quite nice considering it was likely a dug coin. This one is by far the nicest I have seen at a reasonable price.

Looks like a *really* nice planchet. Probably a bit more corroded than the images seem to suggest, but a nice grab all the same. Right at the top of Fine, in my opinion.

I have the coin in hand now so was able to take my own photo. It looks better than I had anticipated. The corrosion is relatively light. The O/o is strong. This is Breen's die state II.
