1907 d Barber dime

This coin is supposed to be uncirculated an has some wore areas but isn't scratched up. I've looked at the books, researched online an seen multiple potential values for this coin. Your thoughts an opinions would be appreciated.

    It's a Barber half dollar not a dime.
    It is in typical AG-3 or possibly G-4 grade. Not close to uncirculated (MS-60 or higher).
    Value is usually close to silver bullion value for a Barber AG-3 coin, about $12 at present.
    Maybe a little more if you find a buyer who collects them.

    If you are looking to learn how to grade coins like this, you should get a Red Book.
    There you will learn that an AG-3 coin has the letters like UNITED STATES OF AMERICA partly merging with the rim,
    but in G-4 grade they are separate from the rim.

    You can often find these at yard sales.
    You don't need a 2025 edition; they all have the info on grading.

    You can also use PCGS PhotoGrade for this, but it just has the photos, not the written logic which says what to look for.

    Obvious trolling.

    Dime
    Uncirculated
    Wore

    Not a serious person. They're just here to create troll threads.

    These do not look like troll posts to me.
    Their posts are not very frequent, and they respond positively to replies.

    [Edit to add:]
    I seem to be wrong about both the things I said.
    I didn't see all their threads from today when I first looked.
    And I didn't check all their replies.

    Who told you it was Uncirculated? Low end good is about it. Retail on Barber halves in this condition is in the $17 neighborhood.

    Anyone who looks at this and thinks it's a dime can't be a serious person.

    That my friend is not an uncirculated coin.

    US half dollars (1839-1891) condition G04 to F15

    @Manifest_Destiny I don't know if piping hot memes count as rude? I don't want to be rude so, with all sincerity and humility, please keep it up.
