dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 06/11/2012 11:52 am I feel like I stole this at $27. Another "OBO" on ebay that no one took the time to negotiate with the guy on. I went back and forth for several conversations and eventually my Jedi Mind Trick worked. Under 5x magnification I feel like I am seeing near VF details in her hair, ear and other points on the obverse. Please review and let me know what you think. Report this Post to the Staff

oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 06/11/2012 1:25 pm I am thinking F-15 to VF-20, ($50 (F-12) to $94 (VF-20)) numismedia fair market value roughly $80. I think you did very well (updating ebay to look for list...) Edited by oih82w8 06/11/2012 1:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 06/11/2012 1:33 pm It does look close to VF. Bust dimes are not widely collected and good deals can be found. This was a good deal. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 06/11/2012 1:39 pm IDK why they are not widely collected because they are beautiful from a historic standpoint. All early to middle 19th Century coinage in the US has tremendous artwork. The artwork that was produced is fantastic and will never be reproduced IMO. I guess the collecting market, like any other market, sees the people go with market trends rather than stopping to the smell the prettiest flowers. Oh well, everyone else is at a loss because I will pay south of $30 10x over to have a great coin like this in my collection. Report this Post to the Staff
