JJuliano Pillar of the Community United States 705 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 11:49 am Please provide grade and any potential issues you see with this coin. I think it is VG08 but cannot tell about env. damage, just natural toning or other. Thanks http://www.ebay.com/itm/37136409274...RK:MEBIDX:IT Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 12:00 pm I would explore the other 1877-S half dollars that are offered right now. There are dozens and dozens of them at lower prices - some of which are even a little nicer than this one. If you are just looking for a Seated half dollar as a type coin, searching the whole category from least expensive and that will show you lots and lots of examples that are less than $40 that look even nicer than this one.

JJuliano Pillar of the Community United States 705 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 12:29 pm I am looking at others but specifically for San Fran mint. I would like to know if there are condition issues with this one, more for my edification, since I am very weak in that area. Report this Post to the Staff
Joe2007 Pillar of the Community United States 3843 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 1:40 pm The surfaces are fairly dark which may be indicative of environmental damage, also some small gouges in the surfaces. I think you can get a much better coin in this price range. Report this Post to the Staff

babysitr Pillar of the Community United States 1339 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 9:22 pm I don't like the reverse damage,from an eye appeal standpoint..even though it doesn't hurt the value of this low of a grade coin too much.dont like the obverse surface either and price is too high..wait for better one Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 01/18/2016 9:25 pm The seller's lighting is not favorable to the coin. I think it's probably a G4 to G6 coin, but hard to tell. The reverse has pretty bad train tracks from a hit. $40 is strong money for a problem-free example, and this coin is not problem-free.
