New pick up

MoldnutMoldnut Posts: 3,116 ✭✭✭✭

I don’t really collect Bust Half Dollars or know much about them but I found myself with this one.
It’s certainly been cleaned in the past as it’s a bit too bright, but it’s toned back to a somewhat attractive look IMO. The reverse is quite shattered which makes the piece a little more interesting as well.

    Congrats on the pick up. That reverse is breaking up good.
    But just be careful....

    Decent secondary toning despite the clean....neat reverse cracks.
