<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silentnviolent, post: 1480226, member: 8797&quot;]<b>sorry about the color issue...</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Does this help? Be assured that it really <i>is</i> copper in color, and seems to match. Have a look <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> My sources of lighting are not the best, but I do what I can with what I have.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;It is markedly thinner than other dimes, and tapered just as described in Mike&#039;s article. What you have interpreted as wear, I interpret as a weak strike due to the thin planchet.&nbsp; &nbsp; Again. I am asking for a grade, which is hard to evaluate on a weakly struck coin, because the difference in values between grades would make or break the viability of cost of submission. </p><p><br /></p><p>So even if it pains you to do so, please give your honest opinion of the grade whether you think it&#039;s authentic or not. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I still have yet to understand, if it is simply worn as has been implied, how in the world it lost a hair over 20% of its mass and retained devices and visible polish marks.

And the colors are pretty close.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
