Description
1939-D Mercury Dime, MS69 Full Bands
Practically Unimprovable Specimen
1939-D 10C MS69 Full Bands PCGS. From a moderate mintage of
nearly 24.4 million pieces, the 1939-D Mercury dime is an available
date in all grades up to the Superb Gem level. The issue is known
for high production values, and the present coin is an outstanding
example of this well-regarded date. The striking details are full,
with precise definition on the all-important bands. The surfaces
glow with satiny luster under incredible rainbow toning. Each side
displays vivid iridescent colors which include purple, russet,
lavender, blue, and emerald-green. The fields are technically
perfect, with no defects of any kind present on both sides. PCGS
has certified only 14 coins in MS69 Full Bands, while NGC has
graded another three examples at this exalted level, and
unsurprisingly neither firm has seen any specimen finer (3/10). It
is difficult to believe that the present coin could be improved
upon, either in technical merit or intense visual appeal.(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23JS, PCGS# 5019, Greysheet# 4596)
