I'll go MS66. And is that a die crack where the left wing is attached to the eagle's body?
Yikes! I'd wager that you'd have to remove two of the zeros left of the decimal to get the price into a more reasonable range.
Half cents are Cohens, and there appears to be four of them... hopefully you have Cohen-2!...
The raised bumps are due to die rust. This coin also has the shield clash marks at the ear. Edit: Oh yes, and a very nice coin. I like it!
Whoops, thanks for the correction.
Mine also has those. I believe they are "Newton's rings," which can happen if there's a thin layer of air trapped between two layers. My...
I believe that there is a difference, but I can't see it... so I would opt for a cheaper 69 instead of a more expensive 70. Plus if your coin...

Probably my coin club's annual local show. It's pretty small, but it's fun to help out manning the front sign-in table. (I've never been to any of...

That's the first one that came to my mind.
I bet if they sat the coin outside that a military satellite could take better pictures than the seller did!
Here's all of the mintages since 1890 (e.g. the vast majority of coins made by the US Mint). I remember copying and pasting these into an Excel...
Man, and I thought I was being a bad buyer when I didn't get around to paying for something for two days. I'm glad I don't attempt to sell...
Very nice! The two quarters are my favorites.
