<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MikeinWyo, post: 3169949, member: 89522&quot;]Thank you for the input Condor.&nbsp; I am content with leaving it in its straight graded holder.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interestingly, I was reading in a coin book that many capped bust halves from the early 1830s have &quot;gouges&quot; or &quot;bite marks&quot; near the center of the obverse due to an instrument used to retrieve the coin at the time of mintage.&nbsp; Granted, my coin isn&#039;t an early 1830s date, but the bit of damage my coin has sure looks like what is being described in the book.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have decided that I am content with the coin, however, in the future, I will plan to spend more for a decent capped bust half.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
