I would appreciate your thoughts on if this dime is in good enough condition to be graded and if so what grade would you give it?🤔

Looks like an EF-40 (all letters of LIBERTY clear, band edges distinct).
It doesn't have the luster / original surfaces to make AU.

Retail value is $42 in a graded PCGS slab.

Cost of slab/grading is like $50+, so not worth it.
Easy enough to sell as is.
for a straight just-unc 1915 along with several other dates/mm for the denom, not worth it under ms63 and barely then. i'd sell ms62/ish dimes in this range raw no prob. - toners, errors, better dates/mm etc a different story.
I think it looks like a 50 if I interpret your pictures correctly. The Barber Dimes are starting to sell with the plastic premium added...so if you can send it in with enough coins I say yes.
A great album coin but not worth the cost of slabbing.
Nice album coin 🤙
Anything is good enough to be graded. It all depends on what your goals/expectations are.
I thought 45 when I saw it
Mr_Spud
I was thinking XF45 as well, and a nice album coin

Thank you to everyone who took the time to post their opinions. 😎
I am using a free voucher to have this graded for my brother who is a longtime collector but not a member. Will post results and pics upon receipt.
Let's have some fun and keep posting opinions and grades if you so desire😉
Well, it took almost 5 months to get it back but here are the pics I promised.
Shout out to the members who posted the correct grade....RESPECT!😎
Wow... Late to the game, but guessed XF45... Very nice. I like that grade in silver coins. Cheers, RickO
Agreed! I think a whole set of those in that grade would be a great set!
