Quote: What is between S-T in States and below M-E in Dime? Good catch. It's a contact mark depression between S-T and a black carbon spot-like mark below M-E.

Au53 seems to be accurate. With it maybe reaching a 55. I see some luster still trying to shine through after 150+ years. Nice coin.

I'm sticking with AU53 but I agree the luster looks like it may be better than the photo shows and could go AU55 pretty easily as well, the small marks on the reverse around the "ONE DIME" and the spot on the reverse keep this one down I believe. The strike and rims look outstanding almost Proof, could be an impaired proof possibly, Nope as there were no Proofs made in the dimes in 1851.
