CoinsInVT Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 07/22/2020 5:02 pm Hey all, back again with another one I'm looking for help on. Don't worry, should be the last one for a while. 1875 Dime. Is this normal pockmarking for the fields, or is this a cast coin? No weight to give you, unfortunately. If real, thinking VF20? Thanks again!

Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 07/22/2020 7:38 pm I'd say VF details as well. Would agree with the above that it had a lot more ED that was cleaned. Was probably XF before the ED/cleaning. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3674 Posts	Posted 07/22/2020 10:08 pm I agree, VF Details (harshly cleaned). @Lancek could well be spot on with this coin's history. Report this Post to the Staff

captaincoffee Pillar of the Community United States 600 Posts	Posted 07/23/2020 11:20 am Doesn't look cast to me, but then again, I'd assume coins in this price range aren't worth doing forgeries on. If it was an 1879/1880/1881, then I'd take a much closer look. Got to give a girl a break...she's 145 years old after all. Report this Post to the Staff
