Thank you for looking and grading. This is a 1858 O half I picked up today for my type set. From looking at the picture it looks to have been cleaned at one point. Hard to see the hair lines in hand.

What a crying shame, if it has indeed been cleaned. Technically, it's no worse than AU50 and probably 55.

This coin has unfortunately been cleaned. Fantastic eye-appeal that will fit in to your type set beautifully I'd have to say AU58 details with only a hint of rub here and there.

Don't tell her!

Really, just tell her, "Honey, these coins are the love of my life".
I suspect you'll be sleeping on the couch though

I would not put much into the coin being cleaned. Whomever did it, did not do any harm, IMO, to the coin.
And as for the wife - Send the coin to me and I will handle her for you. DANGER DANGER Will Robinson

Thank you to everyone that posted.


As a side note I also got a Trade dollar back as N9 (altered coin, not genuine, questionable authenticity, etc). I contacted the seller and he is going to give me a refund.
