Here's a nice one... (snigger): http://www.ebay.com/itm/1803-Half-Dollar-/151290836583?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item2339a2f667
Looks like he changed his address. "424" Broadway looks like it had a digit punched under the last 4...
It's a little darker in-hand - more charcoal gray. The pics were under direct white light. There's a little dirt around the left side stars, but I...
