CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 05/07/2020 8:30 pm Thanks Coinfrog. Definitely not the nicest example but it stood out along the worn junk silver. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 05/07/2020 8:31 pm It IS a very good, at least! For a Barber dime to be fine all seven letters of LIBERTY must show although some may be weak. The "E", which is the letter most prone to wear, shows weakly. Additionally, I look at the reverse to see the corn kernels and the knot in the bow. The kernels are there and the bow knot is split. It makes it to fine. Report this Post to the Staff

CollegeBarbers Pillar of the Community United States 2627 Posts	Posted 05/08/2020 07:54 am Tough call, but I would say VG-10. LIBERTY is just too weak for me to grade it F-12. ANA and IBNS member YouTube channel 7070 type set Walking Liberty set Want list Trade list Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36782 Posts	Posted 05/08/2020 12:09 pm A portion of every letter of Liberty is visible, so I'd say F-12. Judging by the rim detail, I think there are some strike issues here. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 05/08/2020 12:16 pm Thanks to you both! There is some stain or something covering the E of Liberty, but all letters are visible. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
