Yeah, even at EF40 full retail is only $32. So a details coin would be around $8. I'd hold out for a better 1892.

This coin was in a major gang fight. Dude has some major slashes and is lucky to be alive

You do need to stop buying this stuff, indeed.

An $8 lesson? Here goes: Drew, examine the ear of corn on the reverse. There appears to be two die chips.  The color around the edge suggests to me that it sat in a folder/album of some kind. Natural to me from the picture. Well struck, a study piece for future shopping. Now the obverse: If the scratches (not due to cleaning imho) were not present there remain some interesting details: notice the three-dimensionality of the "LIBERTY" band and the curl to the right of the ear. Unless an examination in hand reveals flaws that the photos do not show you have a nice piece to use as a grading guide: Obv: XF-40 Rev: XF-45+

Ehh, I don't think I did too too bad. An 1892 Barber dime with XF details that was cleaned & scratched sold on ebay for $15 and 2.50 shipping. I might just put it up for $15 obo w/ free shipping and see what happens.

@ Coinfrog
That was a bit harsh. Please think before you post.
