Please excuse the lint on the coin

Looks ok, it is a 1914 and it is a D, doesn't look glued on but hard to tell from this pic.

Looks a lot like mine, just a little more worn. I know mine is real and that is why I questioned another 14D in another post, I thought they all had the D closer to the 9 like in these 2.

I agree. I just questioned that same point on Braddicks thread. The "D" seems too far away from the date.

Thanks for your input and additional picture

Certainly looks to be the real thing.

I'd need to see a closeup of the mintmark to make sure it's the right style, but it looks legit to me.

As for the grade, it's only half a coin -- but based on the obverse alone...maybe VG?

Looks genuine from the photo, the only thing that bothers me a little is the "D" mintmark appears to be quite sharp for a g/vg coin? Probably nothing, but I would want to look closer at the metal flow lines at the base of the mintmark.
