Bilbo Pillar of the Community United States 812 Posts	Posted 05/14/2008 11:21 am I think I see a Half Cent with VF-30 details and very unusual toning. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 05/30/2008 12:34 am Hi scmoore61, I think this coin rates an EF grade for details. As Bilbo points out, the toning is a little strange. It almost looks like there are crevices in the obverse fields that have trapped some dirt. Since the fields should be smooth, I wonder if the coin actually has scattered patches of corrosion. I also agree with Jim1953; we could perhaps learn more with brighter lighting. Report this Post to the Staff
