panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18714 Posts	Posted 08/21/2020 2:14 pm XF40 probably details. the hit on the obverse field is pretty deep and multiple scratches across the bottom of the cap and upper hair area that are pretty bad Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5684 Posts	Posted 08/21/2020 3:37 pm That hit in the obverse field is about 1 mm long, and those scratches are probably barely perceptible on a Half Dime. It might detail if it were a half dollar, but I think this would straight grade. Report this Post to the Staff

Just like silver 3 cents, a very small nick looks huge on one. Then factor in the age of it... I'll say EF-40. Report this Post to the Staff
