YOUR OPINIONS APPRECIATED ON THIS DIME

kenoshapete

I picked this up today for what I thought was a pretty reasonable price. It's in in ACG slab (yes, I know I'm not fond of doing that, but you buy the coin, not the slab). At any rate, I'd appreciate what ya'll think this will cross grade over to with either PCGS or NGC.

Just my opinion, but it looks as if the back is slightly rotated to the left.

Thanks in advance.

If the luster is there, it could go MS-64.

Hard to tell the grade from the photo, but looks like it might have been wiped. Ms-60 or 61?

What do you mean wiped?

The obverse looks nice and it's one of the nicer of the strong strikes. If the those aren't marks
on the reverse and the luster is OK then 64 isn't out of line. Otherwise it'll be AU.

It looks cleaned to me or it's either AU, maybe 55-58.

I think it will be bodybagged. I looks like it may have been cleaned. Its' hard to tell from you photo but, I think there is evidence of cleaning on the obverse. Look at the ear and the hair line is that toning or dirt, it is also evident in liberty and the date. The luster has a soapy look to it. If not bodybagged Au or low ms.

Mistercoinman,

No, not dirt, just the scan. I had to look at the picture, and the the dime itself... just the scan. However, the stuff around the edge, but the neck and date....???? Hmmm

Thanks - Pete

There is also a halo around the head, looks like original luster, but the high point look a little worn. I believe it will not grade higher than AU. Ther are also some traces of that toning or dirt on the reverse.
