Hello everyone,

Just looking for opinions on this very appealing Mercury dime. Has FSB and looks to be relatively high MS. So, my question is how high a grade would it realistically have if sent to a TPG?

Thanks!

I'll take your word on the FSB. Pics are a bit hard to see, but these can grade high, so I'll guess MS65 for now.

I think this might be my first time sending out to a TPG, I just bought it today online so that explains the shotty photos.

Once in hand, more accurate photos will be posted.

Agree it looks very choice, but better pics would help a lot.

I am seeing a rub or weak strike between 7k and 11k on the reverse. If so would it still grade 64/65?

Too much glare to determine actual grade or if its FB or not, I would call it high AU for now, post pics once you receive it. The reverse do show some kind of weakness on the left area.

Based on the photos should be about MS63 but better photos could move that up or down considerably.

Better pics are a must here. From the pics provided it looks to low MS. The pics aren't clear enough for me to determine if it is an FB or not.
