[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 4522855, member: 101855"]Yes, they net graded it (overgraded it in my opinion) to VF-35. It doesn't matter to me. I'm just glad to be able to fill the hole in my early half dime set. It is rarer than an 1802 half dime, but since it's a vareity, and not a date, it sells for a lot less. The only other one I've seen in 20 years, outside of a major auction (where I usually get bid passed the next galaxy) was in a SEGS holder. It was similar to this one and sold for about what I paid for the piece I have. When they offer "details holders," that line is a lot of crap.
