Hello. Could you grade this dime for me? I think it is at least AU. Do you see any problems here, like cleaning etc? How much this dime is worth in your opinion? Thanks.

Details are easily (high) AU and potentially MS.

The lighting in the photo makes it pretty much impossible to determine whether the coin has original surfaces, and how much luster it has.

the surface looks soft from that lighting.

a retake of the photos will help. at worst its unc details. its very well struck but please show the coin in different lighting

high date, downward slope with what seems to be a die clash mark at DIM(E). If so, variety is an F-121

The coin has AU details. Like the others have said, you'll need to take some better photos and tone the lighting down so that we can see if it has original surfaces. Right now it appears to be cleaned.

I don't have this coin, so unfortunately I can't send you better pics. I can buy this dime for 50$ and I wanted your help with this purchase. If it is at least AU58 coin, price will be fine in my opinion. What do you think about it?

if you're going to buy a coin like that without having it in hand, I wouldn't step forward anymore, you could get and could be harshly cleaned and there goes 50$

Personally, I would not pay $50 for this coin based on these photos. You might want to contact the seller and ask for better photos. If they don't want to send them to you, I'd pass on the coin.

.

Based on these photos I wouldn't spend 50$ on it.
If the seller is refusing to send additional photos he might be hiding something..

my opinion is they are using lighting to hide the fact that this coin was cleaned. personally I wouldn't touch it.
