Gold4Ever Valued Member United States 170 Posts	Posted 05/10/2014 4:52 pm I pick this up local as the guy has a lot of older coins for sale but me being a noob I don't know all the dates yet to look out for but I thought this coin had good detail.. it also appears that the 1 in the date is double or something and I hope the pictures are good enough without removing it.

MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 05/10/2014 6:19 pm VF range Gerry Fortin's e-book on Seated dime varieties contains a lot of useful info. http://seateddimevarieties.com/ I couldn't decide which variety this was so I'll leave that to more experienced variety pros. -MV Report this Post to the Staff
Gold4Ever Valued Member United States 170 Posts	Posted 05/10/2014 8:07 pm I took it out of the 2 x 2 and to get better shoots as I don't think the 1 is double now maybe just dirt.. VF20 Very Fine:Entire LIBERTY strong and even. EF40 Extremely Fine:LIBERTY and scroll edges distinct. so it comes down to the scroll on grading it?

dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 05/12/2014 6:12 pm I'm not sure this coin was cleaned but it is dinged up pretty good hence I agree with VF Details. It's only one of two obverse dies with the 5 giving that away but who knows what die state it is in off those. Either way a common date in this grade level. Nice dime. Report this Post to the Staff
Gold4Ever Valued Member United States 170 Posts	Posted 05/12/2014 7:10 pm I was looking at the link for Gerry Fortin's e-book and thank you very much for that... I would say it's a High Level Date, Closed 5 / Perfect Die but I don't have a microscope to really see it. Report this Post to the Staff
