Anyone care to give their opinion on the grade of my 2015 P Roosevelt dime pocket piece?    |

I'd say this has been deliberately abraded.

theres no way a 9 year old coin will wear like that.

If I were you and made false claims like you did I would probably start with the Rockwell hardness scale of metals and make up some fake statistics.

Can't grade the coin but I'll give the clothes dryer an A+++
I swing a metal detector and have a knack for finding dirty old coins. Dirt coin restoration projects - https://www.prodetecting.com/restorationsDirt coin restoration blog - https://www.prodetecting.com/blog/ccawDirt coin dig videos - https://www.youtube.com/@prodetecting |

IMO there is no way a coin in a pocket or from just handling can wear like that in that short of time. i'll stick with my opinion until you prove me wrong with a plausible reason how it occurred

I don't grade coins but seriously this is a no brainer and no-grade required.  |

Uneven wear makes it impossible to grade. Looks like you flip it back and forth, perhaps, creating heavier wear on the rims.

As I said here http://goccf.com/t/470518&whichpage=2#4140358 "Uneducated post for the sake of post count fluffing numbers are detrimental to the hobby as new members who may not know any better may misinterpret fake news posts by said post count fluffers as "truth" due to the fake / alleged legitimate post count numbers under their ID name." And this is a prime example where other "uneducated" of "feel the need to jump on the bandwagon" members feel free to post similar misinformational posts because someone who has more "post count fluff" numbers than them must "know" about what they are talking about and take that number at face value wihtout actually looking at that member actual post for the value of the content which is mainly piggy backing on other educated members input and such as "I agree" "Looks good to me" "I agree" Some people listen and learn. Others feel the need to hear themselves talk. |

Respectfully, jack jeckel, to ensure our discussions remain productive, constructive and focused, it might be best to address these concerns directly with Coinfrog outside of this forum. I hesitate to get directly involved in this matter, but I believe that a private conversation could be more effective in resolving these issues and maintaining a positive environment for everyone.
Edit: If you would like to discuss this reply with me, please PM me. Thank you.

To reply to your original post:
I think it's a great choice for a pocket piece... no numismatic value!
As to grade, I am admittedly not good at grading, but I'll agree with E&V here and say "About Good".
