I'll vote VG10. No way you can read Liberty.

Reverse is definitely F12, so it might pull the obverse ahead a bit, so F12 here too.

Heck of a score for .70

I got a few more nice Barber dimes from the haul but nothing rare I think a 1910 and 1913 in way nicer shape than the 1902 s. I'll post tomorrow I think those grades are probably xf and AU. And yes there is all liberty there the E is the weakest....if I had better zoom features you'd all see it. Alas my camera phone sucks again

Where Are You Guys Getting F-12 From ? When you can't even
Make Out Any More Than 3 Or 4 Letters Of Liberty.

I am very picky about a complete LIBERTY on Barber dimes.
The "E" is the first letter to go. Then "B" and "R".
However, I can see "BER". It is weak and faint, but there.
I'll come in at F-12. Especially in this day and age of loose grading.
"LIBERTY" is complete but weak. San Francisco dimes are routinely strongly struck. Is this an exception?
Were this a New Orleans dime I'd have no hesitation.
Overall a VERY nice coin. F-12.

Well maybe some guys need to dust off their glasses.

I can make out all the letters of liberty, they are just weak as matthewvincent noted. Something to keep in mind; grading is a subjective art, and everyone has their own opinion. Therefore, mocking people who don't grade a coin the same as you is childish and just plain wrong.
Rest in Peace

we are voicing our opinion , like I said in my last thread.
and our opinion states that we can not see a full liberty.
not to offend anyone but I was taught a long time ago that for a Barber coin to be in FINE condition all letters in LIBERTY must be distinguishable. so not to say who's right and who's wrong, there are at least 2 of us posting that in our eyes do not see a full LIBERTY that is distinguishable.
