1921-D Mercury Dime In Mid Grade

Nice eye appeal from the photos. Although anymore I assume all coins on ebay are cleaned until I have them in hand.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. It's a handsome example of a key date if it's original, and could make VF20, which would mean you got a very good deal.

I figured this was better than VF-20; the reverse is a bit weak but the obverse is really strong and even appears to have a little luster. I'm also hoping that the color on the back is lighter than it appears in the photos.




Over time I've managed to be able to determine fairly accurately whether a coin is cleaned from ebay photos...though it doesn't really apply to big time sellers that juice the pics. In those cases, its very hard to tell and unfortunately people often trust higher feedback sellers more when they shouldn't. I usually go for coins being sold by smaller sellers and avoid the 'sesationalist' ones since better deals are to be had, and they seem more honest.
