Caddis Valued Member United States 258 Posts	Posted 11/11/2022 7:44 pm Looking for guidance with this half dollar. It is damaged but I think it's a good date and mint. Do you bother grading this type of coin, or would the damage make it prohibitive? Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/11/2022 8:21 pm A tremendous rarity if genuine, even holed, but I have no reference work to evaluate this. Waiting for the experts. Report this Post to the Staff
thq Pillar of the Community United States 3342 Posts	Posted 11/11/2022 8:33 pm IMO it's a $500-$1000 coin with the hole and worth sending in to ANACS. I'd say it's about G-6 grade. With coins like this I usually think "where will I find another one". "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 11/12/2022 01:18 am The reverse image isn't showing up on my end. The obverse appears genuine and like thq said, $500 or a little better would be a value once authenticated. https://www.scoins.com/lot.aspx?a=27&l=875 This problem-free PCGS VG8 sold last summer for $1,770. I'd value your coin at about 1/3 of that amount. Best of luck! ANA #R3154474 Edited by BH1964 11/12/2022 01:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1301 Posts	Posted 11/12/2022 09:27 am Cool coin, even holed, it's a rarity, only 59,000 minted. If it's not holed, it probably doesn't hit the market. If you don't mind sharing, how did you happen upon it? Thanks for sharing. Report this Post to the Staff
Caddis Valued Member United States 258 Posts	Posted 11/12/2022 8:04 pm Yes it's pretty cool. Just going through my dads collection and sorting things out. Lots of stuff, don't know how he did it. Report this Post to the Staff
