1833 Half Cent Grade?

Well,

I had so much fun with my Franklin Half that I'm tossing this one out for opinions.

Any white spots on the coin are scanner related.

Grade away people.

Oh, I'm sooooo sorry.
That's a fake, Clem.


Look at the Liberty in her hair.
It actually says "LIBERTV".
I hope you didn't pay too much.

ROTFL

Just kidding man.
Nice piece.
I've never graded them, or read how, but I'll go an AU-58.

 

Hmmm, strong AU-50, but i wouldn't doubt it if it graded 55.

 

Loos real similar to the half cent I posted earlier. I'd say XF/AU.

I'd like to see quite a bit of luster with a coin in this condition, and I can't tell from the scan if it is there or not.

Nice strike, nice color, and nice surfaces, regardless.

Thanks for sharing...Mike

 

clembo,

That is a nice original Half Cent with a hint of Red! I also believe that it will go AU-58. I don't think that you get any "looks like it has had old cleaning" remarks on this one!

She is a beauty! AU50 in my opinion with a premium for eye appeal. Nice coin! Mike

 

Looking AU-55 from here...

Ben

 

Since everyone is being so nice, I was going to say VF Cleaned.

However, since it is in an NGC holder, I'd go AU-50 or 55.

 

AU-53, very nice coin clembo! :thumb:

Raw coin in a Capital holder actually.

 

Clembo, How's the luster? Does the coin cartwheel? Just wondering & again, nice coin...Mike
