Hello all, I am working up a submission to PCGS and I’m looking for opinions on whether this 1962 dime is worth including. The upper and lower bands appear to be full split, and I don't see any major bag marks crossing the torch lines.
Looking for feedback on both the overall MS grade and the Full Bands status. Thanks!

hey! it's a low grade coin and not worth sending in
looks fb, but save your money and don't submit it
What do you base "low grade" on, and what grade would you say it is? Thanks!
looking at the reverse, there are marks above and below the lower band on the torch. there is a large mark above the M in Dime. mark on the first s in states.
here is a MS66FB - https://www.ebay.com/itm/278034885664
it $20 BIN that's less than grading fees
here is a 66fb from coinfacts - open it in a new tab
here is a 67fb - https://www.ebay.com/itm/267349378132 $275+ BIN sold
you'd have to get a 67 and fb to make it worth it
here is a 67fb from coinfacts
compare the number of contact marks on your reverse to the 67fb above (open in new tab)
yours isn't close enough to a 67. save your money.
Thanks for the input! I appreciate it a lot. I think mine is better than that 66, but I would be hoping for a 67. My camera/lighting setup seems to accentuate flaws, but at 5x in person it looks like a gem. For $23 I might put it in with the others. Thanks for the straight input.
