    Great looking bust half. It looks as good as my 1808 graded AU50 by NGC.

    I like it, but would be concerned about hairlines under the toning- how does it look close up?

    Looks like 1808 O-103 R1.

    From your pictures, there are either lots of parallel scratches on the plastic, or obverse hairlines on the coin. One would need to have the coin in hand to determine whether or not the hairlines, if that is what they are, are excessive for the stated grade. Detail for ANACS XF45 look about normal.

    1808s are hard to find in holders.
    I collect Capped Bust series by variety in PCGS AU/MS grades.
  • There's a lot of scratches on the left obverse field of the coin, hopefully they're on the plastic? It's a pretty nice coin detail-wise. I like it!
  • Yes it has scattered hairlines. I was wondering if it would cross to PCGS?
