oldempirellc New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/07/2008 2:31 pm Would like to get more info on this coin. Is this a known error? Also, how do you grade such a coin - the details are very sharp in some areas and weak in others - it looks like the second strike actually flattened a number of highpoints (especially on the obverse) and details - the actual wear from usage seems very limited. scans can be found in: http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j...half%20cent/ Thank you, Vlad Report this Post to the Staff
