<p>[QUOTE=&quot;petro89, post: 1594344, member: 17048&quot;]I&#039;m just starting my foray into bust halves, and at first glance it appeared to be a VF35, similar to the few graded ones I have.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if it is the pictures or lighting, but after looking further I just don&#039;t think so.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is a rim ding at 9:00 on the obverse.</p><p>The splotch at 8:00 on the obverse.</p><p>It just seems awful shiny on the high points = cleaning/polishing (I realize many of these old coins are cleaned, but this just stands out to me - it could be the lighting, but combined with some pitting I&#039;m not so sure...).</p><p>Very eneven rim all the way around on the obverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t mean to be nitpicky because the detail is there...its just a lot of little things that add up in my opinion.&nbsp; It is not as consistent or flowing as any of the VF35&#039;s that were posted despite their different &quot;looks&quot;.&nbsp; Again it could be the lighting or something else..but if I was looking for a nice 35, I would pass on this one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
