Guess the grade 1833 Bust half GRADE POSTED

[physics-fan3.14]

Just got this one today, my second bustie (after sending my actual second bustie back). I got it from 123cents, and I must highly recommend him if you want to deal with him. He shipped extremely quickly! Its in an NGC holder.

Eh... 40

EF45 with nice eye appeal to me. Great cbh Jason, better than the one you sent back, obviously.

I would say EF40. Nice looking CBH! Carl does carry some nice CBH's!!

Because of the high relief, that amount of wear is grading 45 usually, but not always. I will stick with a 45.

This bustie noob says VF 35.

[physics-fan3.14]

I wasn't happy with the obverse picture, so I took some more and played with the lighting and angles. Is this an improvement?

40/45

Nice coin! I would say 40, net to 35 for the dig between stars 8 and 9 and for the flat strike.

EF-40

[physics-fan3.14]

Good guesses everybody. NGC put this one at EF-40.

Very attractive coin, Jason! It's certainly a nice looker. So, are you going down the CBH path now?

I wasn't planning on it, but you know how it goes... I still have my Franklin set as a priority, and the French colonial set is still going strong, but maybe I can throw in a CBH every now and then.

Your second image of the obverse portrayed the EF-40 grade of this very nice Bust.

 

I like the color of this original skinned 175 year old coin...175 years, that's o-heap of living.

That's a very sweet half you have there PF3.14!!

 

Every new coin that I can remember seeing you post here (especially the 19th century stuff) has been very nice additions to your collection, I think you're doing real well finding and buying original looking, problem free eye appealing coins.

 

You'll never regret these purchases...
