srs77 Pillar of the Community United States 3569 Posts	Posted 06/02/2015 10:39 am Got this one fairly inexpensive, one of my oldest coins, thoughts on a grade? I think it's a details coin with environmental damage and a probable cleaning at some point but it shows nice details in the coin. Thanks for looking! Report this Post to the Staff

Celticsoul Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 06/02/2015 11:49 am Great example of an 1807 C-1 R.1 Half Cent. C-1 is the only die variety for the year and is a very common variety. The heavy porosity is probably due to the coin being buried for a long time. The coin exhibits F-15 detail but I will net grade it down EAC 8 for the porosity. Net grading it to 8 basically means that as a copper collector I'd pay VG-8 money for the coin. Nice coin despite the porosity. 1807 C-1 R.1 15/8- Edited by Celticsoul 06/02/2015 11:50 am Report this Post to the Staff

mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3552 Posts	Posted 06/07/2015 06:28 am Just in case anyone was wondering I looked up a couple of prices for this 1807 1/2C, C-1, R-1 coin @ VG-8: 1) Heritage value index: $ 65 - $ 80 2) Penny Prices-Noyes: $ 80 Just note that the Heritage value index does not provide prices per Cohen Variety. Just for the heck of it here's an ANACS-slabbed problem-free VG-8 auctioned off at Heritage: http://coins.ha.com/itm/half-cents/...1341-24006.s I think the guy got a deal for it being ANACS-slabbed. mdpmedia Report this Post to the Staff
