    Very nice sir. I love the original, problem free lightly circulated eye appeal the coin has. A look that is getting harder to harder to find. What Barndog is too modest to mention is the R6 rarity rating of this most attractive half dime!

    What amazes me about this R6 DM is that there are at least 4 Mint States examples known!!!

    As for your coin, the even color is very pleasant to observe, plus the lapping adds to an aesthetic appeal.

  • Very cool how the berries and much of the arrow shafts have been lapped away.

    Very cool.

    I was wondering about the lack of detail on the reverse, then I read the comments and see it is part of the designation.
