    The marks in prime focal areas limit this to 65. The toning is very attractive (and worth a small premium), and the luster is good. The strike is average, but does not appear to be FB.

    Going with rlm's cents on this , 64 . I don't think the bottom band is fully split .

    @miedbe7 got the answer. The photos don't show how sharp the bands are, they look nicer in hand.

    I paid $8. The pers had many more MS65fb silver Roosevelt dimes for the same price which I regret not getting.

    Fine tonein of course from a photo it's subjective however it appears to be an MS 65 to 69 just a guess.

    The bottom set of bands must be more full than your pictures indicate ;)

    Taking accurate pics of FB, FBL, and FH is very difficult.
