DavidZerbato Pillar of the Community United States 1081 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 2:19 pm This is a tough one from pictures, the reverse look MS, but there may be slight wear around the head and cap, perhaps on the legs too. If no wear, then probably MS64, if there is some wear, AU58 Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 2:19 pm This is a hard one to try to grade, as it looks to be a weak strike... But I think it could go as high as AU-58... That half is absolutely gorgeous... Report this Post to the Staff
algol Valued Member United States 124 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 2:20 pm AU-58, it appears as if there is slight wear on arm/knees on obv, and some wear on eagles head and talon. Beautiful coin! Report this Post to the Staff

muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7189 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 3:18 pm Another beautiful half, AU53. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 3:25 pm AU-50 or 53, the details are stronger but it looks like its been lightly messed with in the past. Thus, I think they 'net graded' it lower. Might just be the pics though. Report this Post to the Staff
johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 4:09 pm Very nice coin! The obverse is beautiful! Looks AU-50-ish, reverse appears to have toned over an old cleaning from the pics. Report this Post to the Staff

Bizybackson Pillar of the Community United States 1817 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 4:57 pm Nice coin, Moe! When are you going to show the entire date run, 1866/1891. It looks to have an old cleaning, but retoned nicely. AU-58. Report this Post to the Staff
Las_Vegas_Larry Pillar of the Community United States 817 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 5:39 pm Moe, Kinda thinking guessing AU58 unless MS63, 64 or 65. I think I covered that one nicely. Very nice half. Thanks for sharing. Report this Post to the Staff
