"Clear enough to identify" best describes this 1805 JR-2 (4 Berries) Draped Bust dime. Yes, it's got issues. But at least it's not bent, cut, or holed, and it is real.

Came out of a 40+ year old collection. Was still in a flip, complete with fully rusted staple used to attach flip to card. Fortunately staple and flip did not damage coin.

Fair 2 Details, IMO -- CCF? No idea what caused the unusual wear patterns.

Took pics w and w/o flash but it didn't really make the coin look different. In hand, it's a slightly darker variation of itself in tones of gray.

Better than fair-2. AG3 is probably correct. The obverse a tad better.
It bears the scars of a long life in circulation, but it is all there and very historical.

Obverse has G04 detail IMO. The reverse holds it to AG3 Details overall.

I'd like to upgrade it at some point, but it will have to wait until next year at the earliest!
