    Seller photos so I'll repost once I get the coin in hand and snap some pics of my own. Scored for $33 shipped 1922 Peace Vam-12A 'Moustache'. Also to make it more interesting the coin appears to have been struck through grease and has basically dropped most of the last 2 in the date as well most the S and T in TRVST. Think I did ok with this one :D, can't wait to get it in hand.

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    Friday my father and I got paid $40 each to move some couches and a boat to his new house. While I was in the area, I decided to visit a coin shop right around the corner. I fell in love with this and walked out the door with it... After paying of course!

    1830 Capped Bust Half (NGC VF35). No idea if PCGS will cross this, but the price was low enough for me at $325 to roll the dice. I liked the electric-blue elevation-chromatics in Miss Liberty's hair (that almost creates a bit of a neon glow) and the smooth colorful rim toning. It wouldn't surprise me if this had an old light cleaning and then acquired color through secondary album toning. That being said, I think I can see a bit of original mint luster hiding in the recessed (protected) areas around the obverse rim (note esp. the area around 9 o'clock, and also 3 o'clock), which is pretty amazing for a VF35 coin. I think it's possible that this is under-graded a bit ... perhaps XF40, maybe even XF45?

    You're right about that. I have a feeling it will cross over to PCGS, but if you ever plan on sending it, CAC will never give it a bean due to the past cleaning.

    I do like the coin though, nice pickup.

    Beautiful coin. Looks better than my XF 45
