Hi Folks...

See how you do against the PCGS. This was (gently) removed from its slab today.

Thanks for looking!

35 details approximately, once I saw '1880' and 'half dollar' I knew it was you.

VF25 in a PCGS slab, and at the top of the market for that grade. Beautiful.

I'm with shadow on this one.. I was thinking VF-35.. and details due to the reverse rim. Gorgeous coin though.. That's one details coin I would love to have in my collection!

The iridescent toning is what does it for me on this coin, cannot really tell if it's a circulated proof or not. VF-XF.

It's actually pretty funny since I didn't even know this coin had such nice toning until I broke it out of the slab.

A nice pleasant surprise!

Another nice seated half Moe!! I'd say 3 out 5 slobbers on this one or VF-35, looks like some might go low XF for the eye appeal though.
