Our thoughts are with you all. (I considered posting this in the World Coin forum since Hawaii wasn't part of the US at the time this coin was minted.) I won this dime in a lot with other items as well a couple of weeks ago before the fire and thought I'd share some images. (It looks much better in person than my images portray.) I had a chance to look at it in person before the auction since the seller's images only included a group shot (no closeups) and it was in an older type 2x2 stapled closed. The lustre was nice with no spots or dark toning. I took a chance it was authentic and bid to win the lot. Please give your thoughts as to the grade. Hope my images are up to snuff. I've added some closeups of some of the interesting features like the crown and wreath. Thanks for looking. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5770 Posts	Posted 08/27/2023 10:04 pm Thanks guys. I'm pretty sure it came from a collector's collection based on the 2x2 it was in. Au was my thought as well once I had it in hand and under some decent lights. Still trying to figure out how to pick up on whizzing. I thought it may have been dipped since it looks very "white" in hand and think a coin this old should have some dark toning on it. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
