Thoughts on grade and Overton?

the obv is looking closer to an AU58 but I think the reverse may net her to AU55 may have been improperly stored but she should grade straight. so many of these were cleaned along the way. can't rule that out

Likely AU-55, the TPGs go easy on this series because they usually come with problems.

The reeded edge CBH series does not use Overton numbers, but it uses Graham-Reiver numbers. Different reference with an entirely different die creation and striking procedures for the short series. The attribution pickup points are minute, focusing on things like die cracks and repunched stars.
Suffering from bust half fever.

Thanks all. So this is definitely not a rarer die marriage that adds value?
