I decided to send in 2 of the nicer coins from the Roosevelt dime book I posted on here a couple months back. Some of you wanted updates. I sent in a 1950-s and 1951-s. I thought both coins had a shot at 67 and one of them FB. They came back today and I was quite pleased with the result. I am planning on sending in some others that I believe are better. I didn't send all of them at once because I wanted to test the waters a bit. I believe these were the mid range in terms of grade from what I have. I am hoping to get a 68 out of at least one of them but we will see. For now, here is the book that these coins came from and some other pictures. Not bad for my first submission. Hope you enjoy.

    Good for you!

    I'd like to see closer shots of the '47-D and '49-D....they look nicely toned and bright

    If you think they’re pretty nice I’d send them all in together. Sometimes a group of great coins will “feed off of each other” with the graders.

    I have 6 more I'm going to send in this week for sure. I'm going through some of the ones I'm on the fence about. None of the coins are lacking in eye appeal as all of them are beautifully toned and the luster is bright on all of them. I was hesitant to send in the 50-s because of some marks on the neck and I was surprised when it came back a 67+. Most of the comments on here awhile back suggested it would be a 66, which I thought as well. I think the toning gave it the +.

    Congratulations... you have put together some nice dimes....Best of luck on future submissions. Though, I must say, I like the album collection over slabs.... just a personal preference. I have both myself... They each have their positive points... Cheers, RickO

    I’m sending 4 out this week.
    Here are my grades:

    1952-s 68FB (I know probably not lol)
    1946-d 67+FB
    1951 68 (Probably not as well but already praying)
    1954 67FB

    These I consider better than the 50-s 67+ I got back, hopefully the graders agree

    Those dimes look rusty? I wouldn’t pay more than 10 cents a piece.

    They are silver, you should at least pay melt.

    I noticed you wrote Roosevelt dimes but I am pretty sure that is Calvin Coolidge. FDR was way passed the time when dimes came around. Just double check before you post.

    I have to assume I am missing something here. Who are you correcting? Am I accurate to say you believe roosevelt dimes are not fdr? and then in the same post tell someone to double check before the post. I love this if it is a joke and super sad that I have to block you if not.

    I got my Roosevelt dimes back from grading recently. I wanted to update those of you who had interest in my recent posts. I didn't do too bad overall, but I was thinking a couple of them should have went FB. They are for sale along with the book if anyone is interested, currently putting together a type set.

    My predictions before I sent them in and the grades after:

    1952-s 68FB (67)
    1946-d 67+FB (67)
    1951 68 (67)
    1954 67FB (66+)

    Here is a picture:

    Thanks for lookin

    The 51-s. The toning isn't as beautiful as some of the others but it graded with full bands which was a requirement for me.
