Never question a dealer’s pricing by quoting some reference book. “But the Red Book says $80 in XF40. Why do you have this priced at $120?”...
Great find! Bet that was a surprise!
I too wondered about the crack. NGC did not note it. If you click the link at the top of the first post you can see the holder. It is one of...

PCGS MS63 BN. I always wanted a Mint State King George halfpenny, either Red or Red-Brown UNC. This one is a Brown, but a nice Brown with lots...
Looks like it's from the '20s, I'd guess. Even a no-date/partial-date Buffalo is a fun find.
Update: Speedy response from CNG. They are going to take the coin back. I'll find another JQA pedigree someday, hopefully with the original...
