I have a zillion mid-grade, common-date Seated Liberty halves like this one. Their value is modest and doesn't appreciate much, but I really like them. There's just something evocative and quintessentially Victorian about them. What say you?   |

She's a sweetie, pristine. I also have several similar to yours, and appreciate their intrinsic beauty.

I'll say VF-35, possibly EF-40.

Nice example, honest surfaces and wear. Agree with Coinfrog's assessment.

The upper bust shows more wear than I'd like to see on an EF example.

Agree with VF-35, but certainly choice for grade.

Looks 40 to me
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
