Yuck, too dark and I don't like the look of that coin I agree but I can't imagine it being that bad in AU58. Photo suckage at its finest. jom
This was my thought...can it really be that bad?? I mean I know TPG make mistakes...but I was thinking maybe at an AU50 price it might be worth a gamble.

That coin has way too much chatter and damage for a AU58 coin. Looks more like a VF Details. Do you think the slab is a fake?

I would send it back if you can. Half dimes come really nice in that grade with pretty color to boot.

I'd suspect FAKE SLAB. no way is that a 58! It looks more like a VF and a crummy one at that!

I was thinking the same thing.
I saw the coin and thought yuck. I thought XF details was a stretch. Unless this is simply the worst photography I've seen all week!
I would check to see if there are true views online.
