I think it might go 62....But I don't really know the pricing....

Weird coin. I don't see the marks I would normally expect on a 60-62 piece. What I do see is wear on the cheek. I think it's an AU55-58 that got net graded upwards...

coinkid855

Why does the little description thingy say the coin is AU58?

commoncents05

Looks to have definite rub, making it a technical 58, IMO.

I know it is graded MS61 but from the photos it looks like wear on the cheek. If that's the case, not a steal at all.

Another AU58 in an MS62 holder IMHO.

tydye

Looks like a dipped au to me with ugly reverse spots.
Here is my AU58 which I paid about the same amount for to a board member here

A dipped AU58 of a common coin in an MS61 holder? No, thank you.

STONE

I was the under bidder on an 1832 or 1831 CBH today in MS61 which went for less than $500.

It was tough to tell if the coin was a slider net graded up for eye appeal as this coin was toned. I passed because I needed the $$$ for other means.

jdillane

I'd jump for Tydye's 58. Very nice.

The NGC coin is the most flagrant upgrade I have seen in a long time. If the so called rub is seen in areas prone to strike weakness, one could at least consider it a judgement call but as seen on the NGC coin, its a bad joke.

Nysoto

It was not a steal, and sold for more than it should have. A dipped AU58 common bust half is not that desirable.

Copper?????

BlindedByEgo

No great loss... Even the seller called it the slider that it is.

Shortgapbob

Is that what "market grading" has come to? That's certainly much more rubby than the normal NGC MS-61.

mozin

I would not buy that coin for $500. It is ugly!

lordmarcovan

Ugly? C'mon, that coin ain't ugly.

Some people just don't like white Busties. I don't mind them, myself.

I'm not sayin' that coin was a steal- not remarking on the price at all- but I think it looks pretty nice. Not a pretty toner like tydye's piece, but attractive, nonetheless.

ziggy29

Dipped slider in an MS holder. Not a bad coin for the right price if you like 'em blast white, but worth no premium over run-of-the-mill 58 money except that the plastic says so.

Kennewickman

This one is temping also. 33 CBH

An overgraded, very common date. Looks like a dipped AU from the photos.

A coin I wouldn't have even considered buying at that price level or anything close to it.

Connecticoin

Dipped AU. I would not even pay $300 for it.

Winston

I’d stay away from it.
