<p>[QUOTE="coleguy, post: 283972, member: 9167"]I'd say you have an AU half. The features that appear "worn" on the high points of the obverse are common on other halves I've seen graded AU and higher, like the example you have above. The reverse tells a better story. You have to remember, a lot of these early halves were struck with coin presses not designed to strike up such large coins and the dies took a hard beating.</p><p> </p><p>I'd bet money if you have it certified it would come back AU. Nice pick up!</p><p>Guy~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
