<p>[QUOTE="Barber dime 94s, post: 2159235, member: 74517"]Hey everyone</p><p>I have a couple of barber dimes in the small white anacs slabs. One in piticular is graded EF 40 , since the day I purachased this coin I thought it looked AU . So today I got out a few of my other barber dimes , two AU 50s and one AU 53 all newer ngc and pcgs slabs to compair to this old anacs dime. After going over each coin with a loop and comparing them side by side , in my eyes it seems as if the old EF coin has every bit as much detail as both the au50 dimes if not a tad more and I believe it has a better appeal to it. The only thing I see on the 53 dime that I don't on the EF and the two AU50s is it might have just a bit more luster.. So this made me wonder why wasn't it graded higher than EF. So I ask myself could the new AU coins be over graded or the older be under graded?? How could anacs be off by 10 grade points on a coin ? Was there a different standard for a coin to grade AU back when anacs used the small white holders ? Any thoughts on this ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
