1906 Barber Half Dollar. PCGS graded AU-58.
Untoned, lustrous and quite desirable in today's market. $695.
1833 Contemporary Counterfeit Bust Half Dollar. Extremely Fine [uncertified].
D 2-B, considered to be common. Though not scarce by 'bogus bustie' standards, this is quite a high grade for any of these counterfeits. It still amazes me that a counterfeiting operation that can produce such authentic-looking lettered edges and sophisticated substitutes for actual silver could only muster up an engraving that looks more like Axl Rose of the rock band Guns n' Roses than Ms. Liberty. $125.
