Guess the grade of this 1885 Dime (It's been graded I'll post grade later)

Sorry having a hard time with the photos, I think I see some flatness on the leg.

This is a guess but I think the coin may have been dipped and re-toned from the lack of color on the raised points of the coin.

 

Any larger photos?

I like the coin and it looks fairly original to me. I would guess 63 from the photos.

I think it grades MS-61. Technically, it's probably been very lightly circulated, but we all know that yesterday's AU-58 is today's MS-61 .

That is most likely true... Sad as that is.

The coin is graded MS64 by PCGS.

The coin is graded MS64 by PCGS.

Whoa! Whoa whoa!

 

Sorry about my terribly low guess - I suspect the images capture the coin's essence very poorly, and it looks much better in-hand.

I hope it is better in real time (I'm sure that it is). It looks very original in color and luster but the head is mighty flat and the breast looks like it was possibly worn...slightly. I would have guessed AU58 or maybe MS60 but I was really leaning toward AU 58. Never would have guessed MS 64, however.
