cownas22 Pillar of the Community United States 1055 Posts	Posted 03/19/2010 5:30 pm I purchased this coin earlier this month along with a bust dime from Northeast Numismatics. I thought the color was nice. What would you grade? Edited by cownas22 03/28/2010 08:20 am Report this Post to the Staff

Bilbo Pillar of the Community United States 812 Posts	Posted 03/19/2010 6:15 pm I think this is right on the F/VF line. My opinion is F-15. It generally has VF details, but the wear on the shield lines, hands, and cap are more than I would expect for VF. Nice dime! This is one of my favorite Seated dimes: very clean design, first year for the New Orleans mint, and low mintage. Report this Post to the Staff

bqcoins Valued Member United States 167 Posts	Posted 03/22/2010 3:08 pm The color is indeed nice, but is it the picture that has the grainy texture or the coin in hand. If it is the coin I would worry that it had some kind of enviro damage, if it is just the pic I would go with a low VF call it VF-20. I love that dime type though, so uncluttered and simple on the obv. Report this Post to the Staff
cownas22 Pillar of the Community United States 1055 Posts	Posted 03/28/2010 12:17 am ANACS graded this coin a VF-30. In comparison to others I have looked at TPG graded at the same grade this one has better detail, I too enjoy the simple beauty of this design. This date/mm combination is also much more difficult to come by than a '37-P issue. The main jump in value is between Fine and Very Fine. I am confident this coin meet expectations for the VF grade, Liberty is especially bold compared to others I looked at graded the same. Report this Post to the Staff
