Kinda hard for me to tell. Looks like the coin is in a scratched or reflective flip which obscures parts of the coin. Could you try and get a slightly clearer pic?

looks like AU/MS details, but without a clearer picture, I cannot tell for sure about cleaning, dipping, etc.

Tough to tell from those photos. Looks like an AU coin that may have some issues so I will say AU Details

Alright, took me a while but I finally remembered the desktop scanner above my head after multiple failed attempts with different light and magnifications. So here they are:



New-Acquisition,-1876-S-Seated-Dime.

New-Acquisition,-1876-S-Seated-Dime.

*note* the coin is not quite as dark as appears in the scan, it is actually quite lustrous in hand.

These are as good as it will get until I can get a new lens for my camera. So if you please, let me know what you think based on these images. Thanks!

i have about 30 different ones of these from the series and where I am not an expert, I have handled examples from G4 to AU58 so I will go on a limb and say AU but its possible a TPG would offer only a details slab due to some rim nics and scratches on the obverse
