Mynt Valued Member Sweden 79 Posts	Posted 01/30/2007 2:02 pm Here are some lower mintage Barber dimes. I'm a little torn between grades. The 1913-S obverse seems to have the wear of a VG coin... but every letter of LIBERTY is visible, though weak. As for the 1904-S, I'm just wondering if it can grade above Fine. Thoughts?

Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 01/30/2007 2:19 pm F15 for the 1913S and VF20+ for the 1904S. I don't know much about Barber dimes, however I think on a true VF (if there's no strike issues) the lower leaves have to be fully outlined...right? They look like great coins with a perfect circulated look. Good going! Edited by Prethen 01/30/2007 2:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Tbar Valued Member United States 191 Posts	Posted 01/30/2007 2:36 pm I would say F12 on the 1913...Like you said, the obv. looks AG, but the rev actually looks strong F to VF. I think the 1904 could go VF-30 on a good day. Nice looking coins Report this Post to the Staff
JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 01/30/2007 10:07 pm The 04-S is in the VF realm for sure. The 1913-S is Fine in my opinion. Nice Barbers. Report this Post to the Staff
Ken_3567 Pillar of the Community United States 651 Posts	Posted 01/30/2007 10:31 pm F12 on the 13S and an easy VF20+ on the 04S. Barber dimes are a sleeper series (and still affordable) and you got two nice examples of tough years that have honest wear and full rims. Nice pick-up Edited by Ken_3567 01/30/2007 10:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Mynt Valued Member Sweden 79 Posts	Posted 01/31/2007 05:17 am Thanks for the opionions, they're very helpful. Yes, I agree-- Barber dimes are an affordable sleeper series! They're going to be challenging to collect, especially in higher grades. It feels like 90% of these dimes are very heavily worn and flat. I gotta get me some more Report this Post to the Staff
