How is this one for a lowball candidate type coin? What would you grade it?

Can't even see the arrows anymore... I don't believe there is a rays but no arrows type.. Nice and clean with no hairlines!!

I like it but if it's a coin I like it. It has character kind of like the old yellow cat in the neighborhood with the bent ear. If only it could talk.

I like it, a long life and lots of honest wear and no problems.

That coin has spent time in a lot of pockets... Cheers, RickO

I've got the twin half to it...in at least an equally low grade

(contemplating sending it in and then seeing if anyone wants it for a lowball set)

Would be sweet to see them both together!! Still pondering on what they will grade this one. Im thinking FR-2

FR2. There was a time when coins with that much wear were not that uncommon in circulation. Many of them disappeared from dealer's stock during the great silver rush of 1979-80. Many were probably melted but some may still be lurking in investors bags of 90% silver coins.

I'd call it fair 2. No chance for a PO1 imho. Here's my Poor Seated quarter type coin:

Heh...Manorcourtman, I just "sold" (practically gave away at a little over melt) a 1877-s 1/2 that looked about like that.
Cafeteria worker wanted some old coins for her husband just before Christmas (his birthday) and I had some low level type coins like that....got her about 20+ coins for just under $200 and the seated half was the 1877-s and really worn. Could barely tell what it was.
