    I bought this around a month ago, the seller wanted $50, I never had a half dollar like this but at the same time I don't usually buy coins of this value so I was like "let me make a best offer for $25" which he accepted to my surprise, but now I am wonder is it even worth $25? If anyone can let me know what they think this is worth that be great.

    If a reputable seller and not a fake that's a great deal.

    I think you got a good deal for a capped half.

    Looks to be G4 from the pictures, but still a good deal. That's normally a $50 to $60 coin in that condition.

    Thanks all, that might be my most prized coin then (in regards to us coins)

    Also a side note, Whenever I ask about a coins price its not to sell it, I just want to know for curiosity. Which $60 may not sound much to many here but to me that is a diamond to me :)

    Looks honest to me. Nice addy to the collection.

    Assuming it is real, the reverse seems better than G4 and the net grade
    to me may be as high as 6.
    Great deal for $25.

    Good Deal for $25. Well worn but natural grey color.

    I like the look of it, but I really like the price! I'd say you did well.

    Depends on if that is damage below the chin or just some weird reflection/image on the plastic holder. If it isn't damage you did very well.
