I got this in today, from the UK. I stapled it (and another almost as nice) into the 2x2s before trying to photograph the reeded edge. They're as bright and reflective as any of the Roosevelt dimes I have from 60s mint sets, and sharp as can be. They are strictly BU, no question about that. The finer points of grading high end material ... that's where the waters get muddy for most of us. Chance   Edited by Chancellor Sutler

I'm not helping things but I think it is MS64 FB if the center one is not graded with too much critique.
The ding on it might just put it out of FB. Very nice dime.

I didn't ask how it was this came to be in England, but here it is with its identical twin. The second coin is almost as clean, and also has FSB. I didn't make a real effort to get both in focus, but the other one, aside from a couple hits on the cheek, is also a very nice coin. Chance   |

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
