There are collectors who will never own one in decent grade who want one so badly that they are willing to accept a damaged coin.

It may only be certified by a lesser tier TPG, Zbut ICG makes less "mistakes" than the big boys. At least you know beyond a doubt it is genuine.

For flowing hair silver the price looks fair to me.  I swapped a ratty cc half eagle to get this 1794 Half Dime.

Sweet Half Dime. Still need one for my Type, and they get pretty scary, price wise, really fast.

Looks legit to me. There's a strong market for early damaged coins.

Right. No misrepresentation of any kind here.

I could see myself buying that. Sometimes a coin is beautiful just because it's so ugly. Just imagine the stories it could tell! Definitely a lot of history sitting there in that small slab of metal.

I would love to know what point the OP was trying to make with this post?

 it seems to me it's just be a very old beat up coin.

To me, a coin like that can actually be more desirable than a BU version. First, it's affordable. But more important, it's clearly been out and about and handled by common folk: a "coin of the people," if you will. I find it much more interesting than a BU that has only been socked away in the desk drawer in the den of rich people who lift their pinkies when they're drinking their afternoon teas.
