Dont have the pic available but its graded PCGS MS65.

Pics dont quite show how nice it really looks but theyre close.
The scratch running north/south on the center of the obverse is on the slab.

    I'm going with 64 and a pretty one at that. I think there is too much chatter on the cheek to get into a 5 holder.

    That's a beautiful coin but no way is it a 66.

    I'd say most likely 64 or 65 and I'm leaning towards 65.

    that's a very nice dime. I would not be surprised at 64, 65, or even 66. would be surprised below 64 and very surpised and congratulate your buy even more if in a 58 holder.

    Based on the toning, is that coin in an old ANACS slab?

    solid 64, maybe even PQ.

    A tad too many tics as several have stated. It has the eye appeal and blast of a gem coin.

    65 ? Did anyone see MFH's 65* barber half that got crossed into a 64 plus pcgs holder ? Maybe their is a mark or marks that can't be seen from MFH's pics of that coin (and I'm going to ask MFH to comment on that here) but if their isn't any then how does the cheeck on this dime warrant a 5 while MFH's half only gets a 4 plus ? MFH, did you do a crackout submission of that half or did you submit it in its NGC 65* holder. One other thing, David what is your opinion of the cheeck on this dime getting bumped for eye appeal ?

    Heres another shot of the obverse. The cheek really is a lot cleaner than what it appears in the 1st pic i posted. I think is more of a lighting issues thats causing it to look chattery.

    Barberlover - this is the seller's images of my 1901-P Half

    imageimage

    I sent this coin into PCGS in its NGC holder - and it came back as a MS 64.

    Not satisfied with that grade, I sent the coin back in its PCGS 64 holder and
    requested a regrade and True-View imaging...and once again, the coin came back
    as a MS 64:
    image

    Still not satisfied with another 64 grade as I thought the coin was a borderline MS 65 -
    I resubmitted the coin to PCGS - Secure Plus. Now that PCGS has "split" grades
    [ in a manner of speaking...] ... the coin now resides in a PCGS 64+ holder.

    The 1892-P Dime is as I thought it should be - a MS 65.

    Aside from the eye appeal - its a 65 details.

    My 1901-P Half in a 64+ holder is as mark free - but
    two of the obverse stars are not full at the radials...
    maybe why it was kept out of a 65 holder... although
    quite a few of the Duckor Halves were not perfect
    strikes either and 99.99% of them came back as MS 66 +++

    I am not insinuating that my 1901-P Half belongs in a 66 holder;
    I was just hoping the clean mark free surfaces and the toning
    would have boosted it into an MS 65 holder.

    So be it - its still a beautiful coin. New images of this coin
    [ as well as all my other MS Halves ] will be taken by Todd Pollock
    in the near future.
