Nice AU.

Nice coin, pretty good strike. I'd call it AU53 or 55. The photos are good too....they show the luster pretty nicely.

Okay, you asked for it....
That is one fine double dime!

Would it come back in a BB for the mark at star 12?

Thanks again,
Ray

AU50, and I'd put a sticker on that one for the luster factor.

doh

I think you'd be okay with that mark. It's not too distracting....I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out. That being said, it's not 100% for sure that it would grade...I'd say maybe 80/20 for.

I would think not. The scratch below the 12th star appears more noticeable. I don't think either marks would keep it out of a holder. Nice looking coin.

The depression at star 12 looks more like a strike through than a scratch.

nice 50 perhaps 53

Nope, it took a hit at some time in its life.

It does have some nice luster but it was circulated.

Thanks again,

Very nice- I don't find the hit very distracting- nice luster and strike- I guess AU-50.
Is that a die crack at the "Y" on the reverse?

astrorat

Nice luster although there appears to be some underlying hairlines on the obverse. That scratch below star 12 is pretty deep for such a high-grade coin...bummer. I like the light die cracks on the reverse, however.

Thanks doh, i'm still working on my imaging..............lighting is soooo critical!

Again, I really like your 20 c.
What I like so much about it is that it is circulated and pulled at just the right time.
Excellent rims and denticles. Nice detail in some of the stars. A bit of luster. Perfect.
The hit at the 12th star is hidden in a good place. Not distracting at all to me.
I can't believe that it wouldn't slab. If it didn't, no big deal. I'm sure many would appreciate it anyways.

Yup and thanks.

Seems most like the coin so I am happy.

Thanks astrorat, I was worried that everyone would trash this coin worse than I did.

When I recieved the coin some 20 years ago I was in limbo about it, maybe cleaned? maybe damaged?
I only paid chump change at current prices but it worried me at the time.
I just got the coin out of the safe deposit box last week and had to re-evaluate my original thoughts.

"I like it minus the "mark" at the 12th star"

AU55...

Rollerman

My opinions are usually the 2 cent variety (here's my 2 cents worth). So here's my 20 cent opinion, I'd say it's an AU50 - nice piece, way better than my VG10.

I will be posting some more of my raw coins in the near future.

Thanks for all the opinions on my crappy coins and crappy imaging!
