jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 09/07/2018 4:56 pm Poll Question Would you pay a premium for the "light finish" 2018 reverse proof half dollar? Poll Choices Yes No Report this Post to the Staff

Alpha2814 Pillar of the Community United States 2023 Posts	Posted 09/07/2018 5:23 pm No. I'm a little biased because I already got one (PCGS graded, a few weeks ago before the variety was officially acknowledged) and considered returning it because it doesn't have eye appeal. It was an accidental purchase (I won an auction I wasn't expecting to and bought another one in the meantime) so I have one of each. Today, I still wouldn't purposely buy one for that same reason. It's a variety, but not an appealing one, and one that you can't overlook because it affects the entire obverse. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/08/2018 3:49 pm If you had an older, lets say a 1962 Proof half dollar that had a cameo on one side only and not the other? It would not grade as a cameo coin. Because if was not seen on both sides of the coin. It just a proof coin then. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 09/09/2018 09:48 am There is also the factor that so far they have been running about 10% light finish coins. If that percentage continues to hold you have a "variety" that makes up 105 of the whole mintage. Probably not worth much premium. I doubt it will hold that 10% though. If there is only one die then it should end up closer to 1.5 to 2%, Higher than that would mean more than one die missed the frosting step. Report this Post to the Staff
