This is pretty clear to me, bu the true test of fully split bands are the center bands. Welcome to CT.
You may have something there. It looks like someone was trying to hide a mark. I'll have to take a better look at that section when I get home.
Half dime all day, the 76-s is extremely common.
Are you sure; detail from PCGS photograde XF-40. [ATTACH] Similar detail of the OPs coin. [ATTACH] Having said that, my initial impression was...
XF-40. I've always loved that reverse.
I can see some faint hairlines at about 4-5 o'clock on the obverse that I don't think would be hidden with the coin darkening. Short of making it...
If you can seal it, then so can they. I'm not sure that this is a good fraud prevention method, but it seems like it would be pretty good for the...
So here it is. NGC called it whizzed, but I just don't see that as being the issue seeing as it still has a descent cartwheel remaining. Though I...
A few of you have hit it. I'm wondering if it was a pure guess or you actually see something. I'll post the slab later on.

I'll try again.
I picked up this little beauty the other day even though it resides in a problem holder. From the collection of the 1/2 cent king himself; Eric...

Thanks for the tips Beef, I'll keep an eye out. And that was my worry about Breen as well. Sort of like a Grellman attributed coin; take it with a...
Go for it Bill.
I wonder why they didn't grade it, I'd call it an XF details (cleaned). 415 doesn't seem too out of line to me.
Maybe, but that's two different coins. The holders aren't even the same type. Does someone have it listed that way? Seems deceptive.
I wouldn't have spent the money to have it graded, but hey that's just me. I'm the kind of guy that likes to break coin out of slabs and stick...
