<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 2593917, member: 5233&quot;]Here is a 1892-S Barber Dime I picked up years ago.&nbsp; I have found that I am unsatisfied with a lot of my collection and am looking to sell off a lot of it and purchase a few nicer pieces.&nbsp; This is one of those coins I&#039;m kind of at a cross roads with.&nbsp; I would like some opinions on it...both on its grade, value, and overall appeal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is what I personally think.&nbsp; First off, having spent some time soul searching and trying to decide how I want to collect...I find that I tend to drift towards the key and semi-key dates.&nbsp; Why, I don&#039;t know.&nbsp; Perhaps I was brainwashed by the Red Book as a child.&nbsp; Anyway, this coin I would probably call a &quot;semi-key&quot; and I also like it because it&#039;s an 1892 and there is something special about the first year (at least to me).&nbsp; So, for those two reasons, I like this coin.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the Barber design, it&#039;s not my favorite...but it&#039;s also not my least favorite (for some reasons I don&#039;t like the Seated Liberty design...but maybe I&#039;m just weird).&nbsp; I don&#039;t see myself collecting series of Barbers...but having a couple examples in my collection is a nice thought.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the condition of the coin...I think it&#039;s a solid VG.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think the details are nice enough for it to be a F.&nbsp; But, looking at the coin in hand and in the photo...I believe it to be a problem free coin.&nbsp; The eye appeal in my opinion on this coin is low.&nbsp; That is the big issue I have with this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I decide to sell it, what do you think it&#039;s worth.&nbsp; Do you agree with my assessment of the grade and eye appeal?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/MVM2sBj.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
