    PlastX would make a world of difference to that slab.

    Still learning varieties so have to ask. How does the O 113 impact this coin/slab? What exactly does that stand for and mean? Is it a plus or make it more common for this coin as it's not one of the earlier years? Thanks!

    O-113 is the documented Die Marriage (pairing of Obverse and Reverse Die) for this coin. In this case it is one of 21 different Die Marriages for the date, and also in this case, it is one of the more common Marriages for the date. Search the web for Overton (Al C. Overton), Bust Half's in general, the Bust Half Nut Club and other references for more information on "O" numbers.

    Nice crusty @amwldcoin ... and like Lance said, seriously in need of a slab buff ;)
