They do not show the color as well but hopefully show more detail. My camera will not zoom enough for this small coin. Edited by copper toning (04/14/12 02:06 PM) Edit Reason: added pics

Although, I believe the images are sufficient to call it definitely AU. _________________________ I reserve the right to change my mind with new facts, experience, opinions, or viewpoints.

Some small hint of hairlining but not definitive in right obverse field? Obverse looks AU58 (rubs r.breast, thigh). Toning is consistant with Barber dimes. Just my $.02. Market graded MS62 probably. _________________________

BillJones BillJones TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 03/09/02 Posts: 7462 Loc: Florida	It looks like an AU-55 or 58 to me. To telll the difference you need to check Ms. Liberty's bossom and legs to see about the rub. _________________________ -- Retired dealer. I am a numismatic author.

Walkerfan Walkerfan TOTAL NEWBIE, makes no sense and seems very paradoxical and counter-intuitive. Is it a very lame attempt at sarcastic humor?? If you have a dream about out-posting me, you better wake up and apologize. Registered: 10/07/09 Posts: 2849 Loc: USA	The coin looks mid to high AU to me. I can't tell if it's been cleaned or not from the images but I don't care for the tone, even if it is NT. _________________________ -Walker Aficionado- The journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.
