Guess the grade - 1830 bust half - large pics

speety

This was my first 'real' coin purchase. I picked it up at the flea market for $60 which for a 14-yearold was a lot of money at the time. LMK what grade you think she came back as and also guess the variety you'd like. It's nice and crusty like i like them and the 'light marks' on the coin are from the lighting/slab.




sorry for the large obverse pic, it said it was resized but...well apparently it didn't resize it

ef-45 to AU 53 Depends on the luster, AND THE GRADING SERVICE

speety

good point pbfloyd. It is PCGS and some luster is visable through all the crust.

I will post the grade tomorrow morning. Then i'm off to florida with the baseball team for a week

if graded very recently ... 45
if done a while ago ... 50

take a guess at variety ... 0-118

regardless of what PCGS thought...real nice crusty busty...especially for a first time purchase

I am going to say EF45. A very nice bustie.

A tad weak strike but an AU50 is reasonable. Congrats.

That Bustie is so much better than the first one I bought, and I was an adult at the time.

My guess is PCGS said XF45.

Nice color and a clean cheek. Looks 40-45 to me.

EF45, nice wings but the obverse doesn't have the same detail.

Cam40

looks like a solid 45

Very nice. I would guess AU-50.

I gotta get up for my flight tomorrow earlier then i thought so i'll post the grade now, and i must say, wow! Most of you nailed the grade--XF45 in pcgs holder. The coin is a O-118 like Seaeaglecoins thought, good job.
