    If only that picture were in focus.

    Looks nice, Timmie - thanks for sharing.
    Did you show it to your dealer yet?
    You likely need to get that coin certified. Worst case you get a gennie holder, but it's still valuable.

    If your coin has not been made bright by a chemical means, then it appears to be a nice AU. A very desirable coin for Liberty Seated Half Dime collectors.

    Just an update for those who initially participated in this thread...

    I opened communication with Tim by PM in February, as I was among those who were highly skeptical of the OP for reasons that might not be apparent to all. As it so happens, my skepticism was quickly dissolved when I ascertained by my initiative that Tim is hearing impaired, which I had not considered until having recalled my days in law enforcement, when I had occasion to interact with hearing impaired college students at NTID. Tim and I established a solid friendship that gave him the confidence to entrust his 1842-O half dime to me for submission to our host. I'm happy to report that the coin graded XF-45, and I'm even more happy to report that Tim is ecstatic about this coin, which was passed to him by his father. It reminds me of some of the excitement I've had as a collector, which can easily be overshadowed when it becomes a business.
    Sometimes there are experiences in this hobby that are much better than buying and selling. image

    Pics added by request of the OP. Don't have a macro lens, just an auto 10X zoom.
