She thought mid AU, I think it has a shot at MS as I saw no wear under my 20X. Pictures do not do this coin justice. Looks very nice in hand. Just thought I'd share before it goes to ANACS. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 03/15/2015 8:06 pm I own 3, including this one and years ago sold the love of my life coin, a PCGS VF20 1850 Moffat $5. Needed the money at the time and now that I'm in a much better situation, wish I can find that exact coin again :-( swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 11:37 am Half Dimes are as small as I'll go. The fractionals are too small for my eyesight. Now about that 1850 Moffat....I feel the same way about selling my AG 1846-C half eagle...the best pocket coin I ever had....why did I let it go....
