I... But... Wh... Well, we'll start by saying this is one of the strongest-struck Seated dimes I've ever seen, especially considering it's not an early die state. Fortin-101b, by the "slice of pie" cracks and before the heavy clashing and third radial crack at 1:30 indicate 101c. Should be a bit of a repunch at the base of the 7 and the usual rotated reverse. If you tell me there's slight wear, I'll believe it, but I see MS62-63 and judging by Heritage results, $1000+ in a PCGS slab. Whoa.

Really Nice! I would say AU55-58 for a touch of wear (or is it weakness?) on the bow and leaves on the reverse and perhaps a touch of wear on the hair.

Wow! That's a beauty! I see it as no less than a AU-58 and could possibly grade up to MS-62.
