Picked this up for my type set today, its my first venture into seated halves. Grades and comments welcome.

It's a beautiful half!

My guess would be either 58 or 63

Looks UNC to me! I like it a lot, great color. I've only owned one Seated Half and sold it several years ago....I should pick up another, they're very nice coins.

63 Nice!

Great looking coin

I'm thinking 58, but Seated Halves aren't my strong suit; they trick me!!!

Very nice looking half, even I am jealous. What grade did PCGS give it?

Congratulations!

Thats a great looking half! I love the fields, they look really clean.

Thats a 63/64 depending on the luster which is tough to pick up from your pics. Very nice strike for a N.O. issue as well. I like it alot.

62

Beginners luck

? Generally I find things to not like about coins given this numerical grade, but hey, buy the coin and not the holder, right? Truth be told I did end up spending 55 retail money for it, but based on everyone’s comments, I don’t feel to bad. It looks like consensus is that ANACS was being
particularly strict that day
