For You Old Copper Folks...

Aside from the damage, what do you think the technical grade is?

Is there a net grade due to the damage?

    I'm thinking VG10 to F12 details. The EAC net grade would likely be G-something

    Thanks...

    This is the "plain 1809," right? No variety?

    VG details. Dunno 'bout the variety. Wait for the EAC guys on that.

    If no one chimes in by this evening, I'll take a stab at attributing it for you.

    Thanks so much... I assume that it's common and R1?

    Yes, R1 and weakly struck, with rim breaks and often rotated reverse.

    I love it as well! This was an impulse purchase, plain and simple.

    I was at a local monthly coin show on Sunday and I just wanted to have a small 200-year piece of history that I could easily pull out of my pocket and share with a friend or a relative.

    It would be very cool to see the actual lineage of these types of coins; who they touched, and what geography they traveled during their circulation!

    There is something about half cents and large cents that really intrigues me. I collect other series but old copper just grabs me in a way that other coins don't. Add in the die varieties and I am completely smitten.

    I would net it to VG for the funky rims. Put it in an airtight or cointain and carry it as a pocket piece.

    I would tech grade it F12
    Net 7 - slight porosity, a few dings, bad rim issues
