Hello all, Please guess the grade on this Mercury Dime. Thank you! [ATTACH] Some more images (including showing more of the toning): [ATTACH]...
Good start! The pamp bars are always popular; even though the premium is high on these, they tend to hold it (plus your downside risk is minimal...
MS 63 FH ...the coin looks very lustrous and without a few hits/scrapes could have been as high as a 65..nice coin!
I have seen this one on ebay before, so I'll not add a grade. I will say that it has sold at least once already and is now listed at a bit more...
I believe each person should be able to decide for themselves. Look at all the pros and cons of cracking a holder, then make a decision that best...
I'm fairly surprised. MS 60 is a grade that isn't handed out too often. I would have thought NGC might go 62 to punish the woodie, but 60 is quite...
It certainly looks better now! I still don't know what a TPG would say (and those spots are a bit of a distraction).
INB MS 70 Slab? My guess is it's an MS 65/66 (I can't tell if it's Full Bands/Torch ....if the bottom band has no separation, then no FB/FT)

That's fair and I agree that the vg sold for too much. I paid about 265 for mine. That may be a little high, but still seems to fit in with the...
Yes in hand it is slightly more cameo, but not as strong as I have seen. It actually surprised me that the cameo wasn't that strong since I have...
I'll go MS 64 ...I think it is pretty unique, but like others have said, I will guess that NGC left off a point or two due to the wood grain
This one was picked up to replace the Franklin: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I used to own this one: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
So did this PCGS VG details sell for too much at $247.50 + $5 Shipping?...
By the way, what would you all think is a fair price for this coin?
