Here's the second 1827 Bust half that I picked up recently.

I'd be interested in knowing the overton as well, if someone could determine that from the photos provided.

There's still quite a lot of remaining luster, as you can see in the photos.

VF-30. Possibly a details coin, cleaned.

Edit: I think your photos may be making the hairlines I'm seeing more apparent than they actually are.

The details are VF-30, but I feel the minute presence of luster in the protected areas bumps it up to a VF-35 or EF-40. Any cleaning would be deemed market-acceptable by TPGs.

Just my opinion, I've been out of the game for a while but I'd be concerned about some of the scratches/hairlines on the reverse, particularly under the left wing. I'd say VF-30, maybe VF details.

I can see this as EF-40. Some weakness in the strike didn't hold it back.

It still has quite a lot of luster left, which probably gave it the boost into XF territory.
