This is my one and only type coin for the Liberty Seated Half series. ANACS graded this, what's your grade?   |

Add some more light and I bet the cobalt blue toning lights up like a Christmas tree. That's a very nice, 100% original shd.
au-55 here.

au50. Beautifully struck coin. Would grade higher with better luster.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I have to give it a 55. Not much circulation at all. Superbly beautiful original surfaces. I like it.

EF 45 Very pretty coin, but the grading services are very hard on later date coins. I have a beautiful coin of this date. Anac 50 but I have half a dozen earlier coins with less luster and more detail in AU 53/55 holders.

Seatedlib. Please show us your coins so we can see the difference. Most of us are here to learn.

Yes, please. I have never seen any indication of bias toward later dates.

AU50 or possibly 53 in an old ANACS.

He has a point. Come to think of it, I have a later date that's conservatively graded.    You guys previously graded it au-53: http://goccf.com/t/284828Edited by MikeF
