<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MadMartigan, post: 2097323, member: 58925&quot;]I just reduced my set to 12 coins, I got a very nice 1830 VF25 Bust Half Dollar yesterday.&nbsp; It is now my third most expensive coin in my 7070 (my 1833 XF half cent and my 1877s VF trade dollar being my most expensive).&nbsp; I go with uniformity there was a vf 30 half dollar for about the same amount of money but it had been blasted white to me the obvious cleaning should have knocked it down several grades.&nbsp; The one I bought looks to have been cleaned sometime long ago but has retoned back up nicely its really hard to find silver coins from the early 1800&#039;s that probably haven&#039;t been cleaned at one time or other but I can&#039;t stand a blast white coin in a VF grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes to me detail coins can be nice other times not.&nbsp; I put at XF standing liberty quarter in my sons whitman 20th century type its a details grade because it has some jewelry sodder on it.&nbsp; I have been tempted to swap it out with my VF SLQ type 1 even though mine is problem free the details one is such a nice looking coin and the sodder is barely noticeable.</p><p><br /></p><p>When building a set you got to build it where it pleases you and not someone else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
