    Can you take photos with the same lighting setup as you did for the Peace Dollar? These look washed out and it is tough to evaluate a coin that is not face up in the photo. I know how to rotate it but I am lazy. That said, the surfaces of this dime look very very clean, premium gem possibly.

    I will soon, I decided to take the photos in direct light which was a bad idea removing evidence of luster in photos, the luster great on this coin.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    There are 2 tools which every photo editing software has, and which you should learn to use (for my health and sanity, please). They are called "crop" and "rotate."

    I can't give good grades based on those photos. It is somewhere above MS-60, probably.

    Significantly better pics (although still slightly out of focus). Based on the marks in his hair and on his face, I'm going to say this one caps at 64. It does not appear to have Full Torch lines.

    I have to agree, the surfaces looked much cleaner in the first group of photos. These new photos make the coin look MS64, shot at MS65. With Roosies, you need to get to the premium gem grades before you start seeing value.
