    Your pictures look good-

    I would grade it EF45 unless the coin has more lustre to it that is not evident in the image.

    It is a keeper- I like it

    I like it as well. 45 based on lack of luster. Could go higher if coin has some luster.

    Nice! Looks like an XF40 to me.

    I think it's a lot better than XF.

    at least au50.

    great looking coin.

    Based on the seller's pics - XF40. Based on your pics, very good shot at AU50 - the rev looks to have quite a bit of luster, and I'm guessing a better pic of the obv would show there is decent luster present.

    Better than a 45 IMO ... I think I'd say 50 in hand


    nice coin image

    Thanks for the comments. My first impression was XF45/AU50. I wish the obverse had a bit more luster in the open fields. I would expect to see it in a 50 holder, plus or minus a grade.

    Cleaned and retoned, but not bad overall. XF-45

    I would say if it came from eBay raw there is probably a reason image
    50 or so image

    AU50 from the pictures... Cheers, RickO

    Great looking CC half!

    Beautiful coin... I was going to guess AU-50.

    It looks like it has better details than that. Lack of luster holding it back...
  • Walkerguy21DWalkerguy21D Posts: 11,594 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Looks like I guessed correctly, as did several others. Your pics made the coin look so much better. Well done!

    Nice coin and I thought everyone was being too harsh
    in their grades. I thought it might actually go AU 53 but
    everyone kept saying XF 45 - and I was trying to see
    what prompted the low grade.

    AU 50 is a tad low, IMHO.
