Hi all, I couldn't wait to get home and share the newest addition to my collection that I purchased this afternoon at my local coin shop. Feel free to grade and let me know what price this grade would usually sell for. I will post what I paid if I am not too  embarrassed. For all that have purchased some of my recent listings (silver certs and misc coins) you did this for me, so thank you for getting me a good start on my album. The obverse photo is a little blurry, may retake when the sun is shining a bit brighter.    Ken Edited by MINT_MARQ

Here's a modified view of Mint Marq,s coin. I'd give it an EF-45, and value is dependent upon variety. Here's a link to help with attribution. There are 14 varieties of the 1832 Half Dime, and some are rarer than others. This appears to be LM-5, an R-1 (very common) so if you go by the numismedia list, an NGC slabbed specimen would be worth 180.00, but this is raw, and I would guess in the neighborhood of $125.00 to perhaps $135.00. http://rob.com/russ/collection/Chance  Edited by Chancellor Sutler

I saw it as Extra Fine (Ear,Hair and brow distinct), which is also what the coin shop graded it at. Of course I am no expert. Since I buy there often, they gave me a discounted price just below what Chance's raw estimate is. I knew I did not make a killing, but it is nice to know I didn't overpay also. She looks fantastic in the Half Dime section, just a little lonely  |

Very nice example. How far along with your 7070 are you?

Very nice Half Dime! Everyone sharing these early type coins is making me want to start my own 7070! |

That is the exact year I want for my 7070 1/2 capped dime.
