Looking for some help attributing this half dime @Publius2 Also, if anyone wants to guess the grade. It is so freshly slabbed that I took it out of the box today! The raw pictures were taken prior to the submission. I'll post the slab later. I predicted its grade actually.
VF35 unless they were tough on it and called it environmental damage. Beautiful coin I’d be proud to own it regardless
Nice little HD! This is the LM-3 die marriage, Obverse 2 and Reverse H. Rarity 2. Note the die crack from rim through Star 1 and into the field. Grade: This coin has XF-45 wear and I'm not seeing any remaining luster but they may have knocked it down a bit to 40 due to the many small nicks in the left obverse field and some larger nicks on her bust.
Most of you were right! XF45 straight. The picture is a bit dark. This small coin is rough to photograph. I thought it would do xf45 before I sent it in. I was obviously hoping for au50. I'm still in it for under price guide with the grading.
And initially the truview wasn't showing the cert. I just checked it a bit ago and it is showing right now
