Got out for a little bit today.
Went back to the spot were I found the capped half dollar, and my US belt plate.
Well picking were slim with so much trash but 1 good one ill take any day.
This is my second 96, first being liberty cap, and this drapped.
Didn't know they made both that year.
Don in NJ has been working on the attributing it. Could be very rare, or a common. Not sure???
Either way, its a good one in my book. Lol
Thanks for looking
George

Love seeing a draped with that kind of detail...the couple I've found have been ravaged by the elements. Fingers crossed for you that it has some rarity in addition to that condition.

Hi Vino; Nice LC there. I would Grade it at VF - 40 with Corrosion. Due to the corrosion you reduce it by one Grade making it a solid Fine Grade ok. Sweet find. PEACE:RONB

She turned out pretty good George. Now let's hope it's an R-7.
