Very interesting dime Tbone! I see a DDR for sure, it's very easily discerned. Don't really see any wear either, but I can't tell how much luster, from a static photo, is still there. Variety 108a - Obverse 6.2 very rusted die with a very severe die errosion. MS63 is the condition census, so I'm thinking this one is pretty close to it maybe even better.

is that your dime tbone? if that's graded better than the Fortin Plate Coin, which Greer owns and is an MS63 but not by a TPG, that is graded by a combo of Fortin and Greer's expert opinion on the series, you may want to submit that for plate coin consideration I'm not sure what PCGS gave this dime but I am curious |

Searched for it on ebay (wanting it) until I saw the cost, and after all the books and taxes I've spent money on this month, I can't afford it  http://www.ebay.com/itm/181125910449Though $725.00 seems pretty fair for one this nice, and a great error variety coin, in a heavily collected series.

premium mark up for the variety is too much hammer dropping at HA on MS62 and MS63 for under $500 on a few coins in the past year I think he's as high as he is due to eBay/paypal and the $100 it will cost him to sell this through this vehicle I'd rather PM him and offer sending a check for $600 this is why ebay is a bad place for our hobby; inflating the market on premium coins due to their piece of the action IMHO |

What about buyer's premiums at major auction houses? Credit card processing fees, hosting fees etc, for any webstore? B&M markups? Edited to add: Oh, I guess that was your point-- you'd rather email the seller and buy direct :) Edited by ThisIsFun
