I think I would grade this as VF-20, there is a lot of wear on liberty's legs.
Still a very nice coin.

Nice half! I'd grade this VF-30.

Liberty's head shows nice detail. The obverse gown and shield and reverse arrow feathers are a bit too worn for EF. I really like the toning.

It resembles the photo very closely as to color/toning.

Thanks to all so far, I certainly do appreciate it. It is one of my
favorites visually.
