From what I can see it may be an AU-55 don't see any wear on it its got that beautiful blue battleship grey natural tone, a stunning Barber dime. That one deserves a slab nice coin.

CoinEnthusiast Valued Member United States 485 Posts	Posted 04/11/2023 8:34 pm I could see it getting an AU-55 or 58 designation. I'll go with 55. Report this Post to the Staff
Driven New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 12:19 am This is exciting! I have another one, but no mint mark and has a mark on the cheek, but better on the reverse. I really appreciate your responses. I can definitely see the differences in detail (former crime gun analyst) but am a bit overwhelmed with all of the individual niches for each coin, mint mark, year, error, cleaned, variety, etc. I'm going to keep sorting and post as I find ones that are interesting— Report this Post to the Staff

I dont think anyone ever gets to a point where they know all the coin series and their nuances in grading them I'm also at AU55. nice coin. I think with a little better eye appeal (blotchy surfaces) and luster the coin could have made a 58 grade. also note the weakly struck area from K7-K9 on the reverse. K represents the hands on the clock. strike also plays a role in the grade Report this Post to the Staff
