1921 Alabama Commemorative Half

This is the only other raw coin that I purchased today at the show. I picked this one up in an old Capital Plastics holder. I'd like to get some opinions on grade. Thanks in advance.

AU-53

Yes, I agree with AU-53, maybe even AU-50. The coin has an overall layer of wear on all of the surfaces, and the luster is impaired. Compare to this one, which is graded MS-64.

That's a wonderful looking Alabama Bill! Looks to have some strong luster for a 64 too. Thanks for sharing.

I like the original patina on this coin. Very appealing to me. Great purchase!
