I once bought a Seated dime that the store said was dateless for $5. Turns out it was an 1858 S which is so badly worn I can see the tip of the 5 and the 8. The back isn't all that bad. Did I mention it had a slight bend as well? Anyway! Thats mine

Mine would be this well-worn 1805 Draped Bust Dime. Not high grade, but it is mine.

This is a Three Cent Nickel which should command a very poor grade. Coin is best viewed at arm length away to determine series.

You do realize that if there is indeed an S mintmark you have a key date coin there, right?
