Was a surprise in a pile of slicks, a few things holding it back, what do you guys think?

1918-S-Mercury-Dime-Grade-Request

Edit: Hard to get an idea for the surface, but it is basically an even light brown tone uniformly, used this lighting/photograph for detail purposes, assume surface is good.

Sort of "fine to very fine" with maybe a little bit of environmental damage due to pitted surfaces.

Good find, though! Cool!
Rest in Peace
