Well losing a 5 cent piece in the 19th century, would be like losing a dollar today... at a minimum, it mattered.
If you found it with a metal detector, it likely has severe ED ( Environmental damage)....and you've probably attempted to clean it, and damaged it, doing so.
If the half-dime has great detail, and you haven't fucked it up already.... NCS could "conserve" it
Pm me a photo, if you desire. My opinion is free.
condition makes a big difference. My services regarding evaluating US coins are free to any RX'er I'm not great with foreign stuff, but I'd try.
I'm quite good with US stuff.
There's a big difference between the coins shown above. I know the dates are not the same.
You can't ask me what an 1843 half dime is worth, could be $10 or 10K.
I will assist anyone with an opinion, but photos are customary in numismatic circles.
I can't tell if you have the first coin or the 2nd one.

A time for a reminder ?
Any dime , quarter or half dollar minted ( bearing a date previuos to 1965 is 90% silver), save it.
Any half dollar from before 1971 is a save
any pre -1959 cent, save it.
You could also save nickels from before 1960
Any other stuff, I'll give an opinion on upon request, from a no date Buffalo nickel, to a PCGS slabbed 1798 VF-30 Bust dollar.

looks like a solid Proof -63 minimum to me.BTW
Doug, thanks for the response, especially since its hijacking your thread.
i didnt find it,,,, a customer (friend) at my store did....
im just now getting into metal detecting..
quick story (comment).....
i have another customer (friend), who owns a farm a few miles from my store..... its a common story in my area, that a Civil War Yankee camp, was on his property for almost 2 years...
a few (not many) have hunted his land and found nothing... the current owner has told me, he thinks that the story was not true........ however longtime residents (oldtimers) continually tell me that it is true and they swear on it.....
i have permission to hunt this land at any time and plan on doing so this summer.
i figured what better way to start "civil war relic hunting", than to start right at my own neighborhood, especially with such a good story to start with...
could things (artifacts) be deeper than a few novice hunters have thought, any tips on finding this camp?
i guarantee you that it hasnt been found and excavated... it would be cool to find it..

Bahh, sleep with them all.
Do the step-daughter first. Casually mention to the the old lady you did her daughter after you just finished banging her so she will want a divorce.
Tell the boyfriend that you and your wife want a three-some with him and then bang the boyfriend when he shows up. Convince the boyfriend (when he's in a drunken state after you just banged him), to start sleepin with your soon to be X so you don't have to pay support since he wants to get married so quickly - let him marry your X. Anyways, since you slept with her daughter the wife will want to get back at or get even with the daughter so she will want to sleep with the boyfriend.
At the end of the day explain the plan to the step daughter what a scum bag the boyfriend is (he's gay and he attacked you - you have pictures to prove it) and how you did it all for her and she will love you forever.
OK then - good to go.

did not mean anything personal by it doug my friend. I just sort of felt that way while reading your story. Don't mean to laugh,but you sounded to funny. You would save yourself alot of headache if you get divorced before it all goes down. People only learn by pain my friend, believe me. btw my wife is 14 yrs the younger and i love it...:hump::toast:
