Grades in - here's a Barber dime

Cracked out of an old ANACS holder, was MS62, still is. I rarely collect coins below MS64, but this one's a keeper.

    Hoard the keys.
  • I like this coin the best of all you posted. I'm not a 5 cent piece guy though.

    The reverse on this Barber is really attractive.

    That really is the best 62 I've ever seen... the damage must be hiding behind the damage (toning). image

  • The reason it got MS62 is there are considerable slide marks on the obverse profile (cheek/neck), possibly from the very album that gave the coin such great color. Fields are at least MS64 quality if not better; reverse is absolutely gem in all respects.

    They're well hidden... this would have been a great "Guess the grade!" thread.
