Hey Wanted to posts this and get some of your thoughts on this 1/2 Dime grade and tell me what else you see is it a cud on the Obv. post mint? and the right wing on the rev. is that post mint damage. Thanks Paddy
From the pictures I would call it F. Not sure what is up with the color, looks kind of blue like it was dipped - could just be the pictures. Not sure what variety it is - I actually use this http://rob.com/russ/collection/ for some of the attributions. Let me try it - this guy has a great collection.
As Mark mentioned, it's hard to say from those scans. One thing seems clear - those surfaces have been monkeyed with in a serious way. Harshly cleaned then artificially colored is my best guess.
