1830 50c Large Letters???

Horrible photos, I know. I have a chance to buy this coin and it looks to be the very rare 1830 Large Letters. What do you think?

Very rare and expensive variety. Is it really LARGE letters?
Can you post photos of the large and the normal to compare?

Based off this thread, no. Yours does not look like this one.

 

From PCGS.... probably not, but potentially. Those are the only photos I have to work with, unfortunately.

 

The "C" in 50 C. is what I am looking at. Well defined at the top of the C

 

Nope. See here, same as above. The E in STATES and the A's in AMERICA are so tall they are nearly touching the rim: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/1830-large-letter-bust-half-dollar.26921/

 

10-4 ... thanks

 

Yes the shape of the E is wrong. The E in the photo seems smashed down
like the comparison photo. And as CBD says, the A is VERY telling, it is away from the rim in the photo.
Not large letters.

 

I agree. Thanks for the time.
