RoyCoinBoy Pillar of the Community United States 1609 Posts	Posted 06/14/2017 3:59 pm Not in the prettiest condition, but if it was a genuine coin in the VF range, it would go for around $130-$200 USD. (Or about €116.10 - €178.61) Edited by RoyCoinBoy 06/14/2017 4:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 06/14/2017 4:04 pm Looks like a real square base 2 half. Seems to be F12. This is just a guess but maybe 85$? - check ebay to get an idea of actual prices being paid Report this Post to the Staff

jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2200 Posts	Posted 06/15/2017 07:58 am I've seen plenty of similarly dated coins with the same type of wear, so I'd say it's genuine. The 1827 is not rare as capped halves go, so there is no compelling reason to produce a fake of it. Report this Post to the Staff
