PennehChaos Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 01/19/2009 12:31 pm I don't know if it's just the mylar/so-so photo, but that 1832 half-dime just doesn't look right to me... Granted there were a lot of varieties, but did one of them really have that bulbous nose? Report this Post to the Staff

Didn't think I would win it, obverse is a bit....dark, but I'd actually net grade it a little higher than G-6 because the back is so nice...

coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 01/26/2009 5:55 pm Need some help with a few of these... The arrows rays quarter is very nice. The rare dime is dark but relatively pretty. The 1866-S no motto half looks brighter than it should be. It doesn't appear abrasively cleaned, probably dipped. Still worth the $150, or send it back? The 1832 Half Dime is definitely PQ on the reverse, obverse I'm not entirely sure about. Might have been lightly wiped, but again, I'm not sure. Need some help deciding whether to keep it. The 1890 dime looks pretty good overall, but I will post pics anyway. They're coming tomorrow. Edited by coinguybrian 01/26/2009 6:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 01/27/2009 11:20 am Here's the 1866S half. The 'hairlines' I'm pretty sure are sliding marks, because the coin does not appear abrasively cleaned upon close examination, but its definitely been dipped in SOMETHING. Here's the 1832 1/2 dime. The obverse has some darker areas, the reverse is completely pristine. Grade? Send it back? Here's the 1898-S dime. I'm rubbish at attributing varieties, but SOMETHING looks different about the date. Can anyone confirm that this is the breen 3513? The 1890 dime is the last photo. Unfortunately it DOES have a small rim ding, but looks pretty original. I'd call it AU-55+ but would anyone care to give it a grade? Report this Post to the Staff
