GTG of this 1855-O SLH!!!

I picked this 1885-O Seated Liberty half for nearly melt. What do you think it'll grade, if at all?

    You did good for melt. But yes, baldy cleaned from the image and XF/AU details but great find for melt!

    Amazing for melt, and great detail. Unfortunately it has it’s problems, but still an amazing coin that is $300 in AU50!

    Even though cleaned a great deal indeed.

    I agree with the off part. Not sure about counterfeit.

    Hard to beat for close to melt.

    I agree with the AU details cleaned group

    Wonderful to get the example for near melt.
    AU53 but some of the toning and areas on the fields are concerns.
    Whether you want to triple your cost for the piece should be weighed against the good fortune of acquiring a great AU raw example at near melt.
