Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 06/17/2011 12:09 am Images are scans. Not too bad looking coin in hand actually. Once again, tough to get the details on the scan. All but one of the stars in full bloom. Was curious about the avg. strike details on these dimes when minted. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 06/17/2011 10:03 am Thanks you guys. I agree with the lackluster. But I also like the look it has. Kind of like what a coin this age is supposed to look like. Got handled a little bit early on then just sat around and aged gracefully. Do you think that first star (right side looking) is more so from the strike than from wear ? If from wear then a detail 53 may fit. If from strike a 55 ? Minus luster a 50 ? I would be thrilled with a 50 overall. This coin would fit the bill for a decent 1857 date set of all denoms. I.E.: Cent, nickel etc. Report this Post to the Staff
Las_Vegas_Larry Pillar of the Community United States 817 Posts	Posted 06/17/2011 8:46 pm I think you would be thrilled then my guess is AU53. Very nice coin. It will be a fine addition to the date set. Report this Post to the Staff
