    Team,

    Just got in the mail today one I needed. An 1829 over 1827 Capped Bust Half, O-101. It's in a slab (National Numismatic Certification, NNC) and will soon be cracked open to FREE the Beautiful Lady Liberty, but for now (*heading to a St. Patrick's Day function) all I've got are the auction pics as I haven't taken any and the old-lady has the camera normally used... Here they are. :D

    Take Care & Thanks for Looking
    Ben

    Okay, here is my picture of her after crackout. What grade would you assign this coin and then I'll show you what NNC gave it :) Notice the overdate, it's clear when out of the slab.

    Take Care

    Nice coin! Don't know enough to grade it but I certainly like this one.

    I have used Harlan J Berk for several coins - I know his morgans came back from PCGS exactly as described. My father sent his xmas present in to be graded and the 2 from Harlan J Berk came back exactly at the grade I purchased them at. I have had no problems and only good customer service from them.

    Nice coin, I have the same date but not this variety. Love the toned edge. I would give the obverse a VF25-30 and the reverse a EF40, So overall grade of VF35 or so.

    NICE FIND!!!!!!

    Thank you Steve, the process was very simple. I just twisted the edges with my bare hands and so they separated and cracked. Pretty shoddy workmanship and material :(
