cipster Pillar of the Community United States 2364 Posts	Posted 10/06/2011 8:05 pm Here's two half dollars that I purchased recently - please help me with the grading and variety. Here's the first one - Here's the second one. I'm told by the seller that it is O-106 R3 - can someone please verify? Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win".

afclassic87 Pillar of the Community United States 564 Posts	Posted 10/06/2011 9:21 pm First half I would grade F12 cleaned. The second half I would grade F15, maybe cleaned. I can't tell from the picture but the gray collor is a red flag for me. I have no idea of the variety. Report this Post to the Staff
Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 10/06/2011 9:45 pm I got curious about the variety. I don't know much about them at all so I thought I would net search until I found some information. But I think you will have to get your verification from the Overton book(Early Half Dollars Varieties). They are lovely coins. I hope you find the information that you want.
