joeysanders627 Valued Member United States 408 Posts	Posted 10/28/2016 10:41 pm I bought these three coins last weekend. Thoughts and grades from the community would be appreciated. 1. 1854-O Seated Liberty half dime 2. 1862 Seated Liberty dime 3. 1872-S Seated Liberty half dime Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/28/2016 11:13 pm 1854-O H10C mid VF details harshly cleaned / env. damage 1862 10C AU53 cleaned and retoned but still decent eye appeal, reverse has minor rim damage at 5:00; not sure if it would full grade at a TPG or not. 1872-S H10C VG details damaged obverse (heavy gouges and scratches above acceptable circulation wear) -- might be env. damage as well based on reverse surface appearance.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/29/2016 5:21 pm EF-40 straight AU-53 details (cleaned) VG-10 straight - the gouge and field marks are greatly magnified in these pics of a tiny coin. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/29/2016 11:13 pm If that top coin came back in a straight grade holder I'd be shocked, but perhaps not as shocked as I would have been once upon a time.

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 10/30/2016 08:01 am Top coin looks like it has a bit of luster left, so EF-45/AU-50 Second coin looks AU-53, but dipped and retoned. I would not pay full value for it. Third coin might get F-12. These Half Dimes had some strike issues, which makes them very hard to grade. I'm going off the reverse on this one.

Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 10/30/2016 11:17 pm 1) EF-40, but I do not know whether or not it would grade Details. 2) AU-53 Details. 3) VG-10. Report this Post to the Staff
Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 10/31/2016 09:18 am I might be in the minority on that 1862. I kind of like the look of it and I'm usually pretty picky about dipped out coins. Maybe I'm losing my touch. Report this Post to the Staff
