Letters on reef of Barber dime and damage?

I was looking at the damage on this coin to verify it is PMD. It looks it but maybe it is a peel. Probably not. I was looking at the reef though and I am seeing letters like the "TED" in United States on it and other possible letters. I could be wrong, maybe it was just displaying weird when I made the image larger.

'Tis just damage.... and "wreath".

 

Yeh weath not reef lol, big difference. I am considering tossing this in junk despite it's VF details.

 

yes, damage

 

I'd sell it as junk silver.

 

PMD but I'd keep it just because they don't make them anymore.

 

wReath not weath lol...man you're having trouble with that word. Don't worry tho, you're not the worlds worst speller.....

I am...

Im with @Collecting Nut - keep it, they don't make'em any more plus with Barbers, it seems they are all worn slick, anything above an F is better in my opinion.

 

Sell for a "filler" piece later on as the internet dries up all the better ones/or on Fleabay....

 

Somebody butchered that coin worse than you butchered the word wreath.

 

I generally save all Barber dimes that are F or above but they are generally in much better condition than this one. The coins I just hoard are either F, VF, or XF but think I have one that is AU maybe AU details.
