    Perhaps my best eBay find. 1834 Bust capped dime for $11.13 shipped. Guy had it in the wrong category and wrong year on the title.

    I'm guessing grade is AG/G? There is a small nick near the 4.

    I would say AG - scratched
    Nice pick up!

    I'd actually almost say this is close to being VG, borderline though with the scratch, maybe marked as damaged, since you can make out most of Liberty. Most VG to G you only see the outline of the head. Could easily fetch $30 or more likely in this condition, you got a good price I think.

    Keep in mind that Liberty is incuse; also look at the rim on the reverse and lack of detail on the eagle's wings

    True, the back is in much horrible shape, but like I said, most of these I see that got some Liberty on them are G and up.. for the most part, most of these dimes you only get the bust cap outline with zero details in AG to G condition.
