As before-I need independent opinions on grading and valuation.Coin looking very good in hand.I don't keep my coins in plastic envelopes so on pics(not the best by the way) you can see some white dots from paper holder.Nothing like it on the coin.Brown.Exposure adjust for better visibility of details.Thanks   |

Not really my area of collecting, but I'll give it a shot. I would grade this coin at AU-53. They does appear to be a weak stike in the area of STATES on the reverse.

That is another very nice piece! My guess is AU50.

I think it is a solid AU-50. Color is pretty dark but still looks original. Marks are slightly distracting but there is nothing that rises to the level of "damage". Very decent classic Half Cent! |

Validman, I love the Half Cents. A truly unappreciated series, especially when you consider the low mintage dates and their values compared to the 1909 S-VDB LWC. If the Half Cents ever come up in demand and the prices adjust themselves accordingly, anyone holding low mintage Half Cents is going to walk away very happy. Anyway, I love your coin, but I don't see it making AU50 - solely on the condition of the reverse. Just not enough detail in the leaves. I'd give it an EF grade certainly 40, maybe 45. Great coin!!  |
