Picked this up last week at an absurdly low price. What say you?

First, I'm jealous. I don't have an example of this type.
Second, absurdly low price? Double jealous.
Third, Looks F-15 to me. Uneven strike keeps it from VF IMO. I think it holdered F-12 straight.

Must agree....jealous!  If you don't mind sharing, how much did it set you back? Love the early American coinage thats circulated like this but still looks amazing. Great color/circulation cameo and natural look to it. Gotta be minimally Fine-15. Beautiful pickup! Congrats. -CH27

Nice, also one I'm missing in my type set... I'm guessing F-15, which is also the grade for this type I have on my want list

Fantastic coins, fantastic pictures and always something that I would LOVE to have in my collection. Thank you! I'm very proud to add this to my set. The draped bust dime was an obscenely difficult coin to find with a full scroll at the budget and grades I was looking at.

F-15 sounds right, choice for grade.

The detail on the central devices just makes VF-20. IMHO the weaker peripherals might slab it at F-15. Fantastic coin, with plenty of eye appeal for the grade.

I was thinking F(15). I could see a VF(20).

I'm still missing both the small and heraldic eagle draped bust dimes in my type set, and have had the same issues in years of searching for just the "right" F-VF example of each.

Nice coin, looks original. I'd estimate F-12.
