Recent Acquisition. This would have been my oldest half dollar if it wasn't for one a bit older I picked up in the same lot. What do you grade her at? These aren't the greatest pics, but I think they should get the job done. Thanks!

I'm at VG-08.

@John: IMO it wouldn't be fair to compare a Seated dollar to a seated half because of the sign and weight differential which has resulted in a different standard for grading and also because both units were used in different amount varying by year resulting in different amounts of wear.
