    It has problems, but it's a vf details large letter reverse. I'd say it's a $75-80 coin, in my opinion, even with the problems. Large letter reverse 1829's are hit and miss. I once sold a raw one in problem free Good for $250 at auction on eBay, just because mine was the only one listed and there hadn't been one up in a while. But another time I sold a PCGS XF45 one for $310 at auction, with the variety on the holder, and actually LOST about $40 after fees.

    No C-D-B is telling you the variety not the value

    Nice coin looks to be in original condition as well.

    Looks like a details coin, still a nice bustie. Careful, they can get addicting. (My first Bust Half was an 1829 as well.)

    To the original poster - nice pickup. I find it very interesting that the obverse is pretty worn(or weakly struck) yet the obverse looks like it has a really nice strike on it. Interesting to say the least. Nice pickup.
