Lot Title: 1833 Capped Bust half dime, and an 1857 Seated Liberty half dime, as described
Lot Number: 259
Description: The Opa Collection. A pair of strongly detailed half-dimes instantly fulfill type purposes at the [Cataloger's grade ESTIMATE] for the thoughtful collector. First is 1833 [UNC/obverse scratched] that would be a nearly phenomenal choice-plus example if not for several vertical pinscratches directly upon the face. Accompanying is 1857 [AU/heavily dipped] that has sharpness quite close to UNC, but the surface now exhibits a curiously chalky appearance most likely due to unknown chemical exposure that took off all potential remnants of luster. Two coin lot.
Estimate: $400-$500

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, CACG, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
