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.

What a nice coin . .

pcgs gives to much of a bump for eye appeal to raw coins sometimes, if the cheek on this coin got better then a high end 4 then that proves it.

Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
I would nod my head in agreement at MS64.

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

Beautiful coin and belongs in a 64 holder.

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 ?

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