Thanks for humoring a newbie. I picked this dime up in an online auction for $5 and was wondering a couple of things. First, is this a coin you think is worth grading? Any estimates on what range it might grade in? And does it qualify as full bands?

There are marks on the neck, cheek, behind the head, in front of the nose, and in the top of the head. There is also a small spot on the reverse under the first s in states.

Thanks.

Not even close in value to the $30 or so it would cost for TPG evaluation. Save your grading fees.

poor photos to grade from but the bottom line is that this is common coin with a mintage of over 65mm.

for future reference due to the cost of grading a coin you will chew up the entire value of a coin or a high percentage of it unless its falls into one of the following categories

1. its a rare coin that needs authenticated and preserved
2. the coins value exceeds $150 and you plan on selling it
