SILVER at 1830's homesite

Me and my huntin buddy Randy (randyinarkansas) have been hunting this 1830's homesite for a while now and have found some nice stuff to include: 2 large cents, several buttons, and lots of non metalic items like bone dominoes, clay pipes, and lots of other stuff, but today i finally found some silver that i knew would be there.

1838 O Half Dime without stars and in exellent condition...only 70,000 were minted i have enclosed a computer scan of the coin.

Hi GREAT FIND but this coin has 2 conditions which distorts the value
from being a $225 coin down to an average of $100 which i have show
in this picture.

GREAT FIND. BUT, this coin, in it's condition, would be hard pressed to be graded F-12. There would also be a qualifier, (or sub listing), as being "damaged". Sorry bud, but if you went to sell it, you're looking at a $50-$100 coin. It's STILL a tremendous ground recovery, but not Banner worthy. Hogge

This half dime does not have stars per PCGS website. None of the 1838-O variety have any.
