Description

1916 10C MS68 Full Bands PCGS. The first-year 1916 Mercury dime was saved, but as the grade advances upward to approach technical perfection, the number of high grade candidates dwindles dramatically. Offered here is one of the few that was deemed worthy at the major grading services. Its nearly brilliant surfaces offer vibrant luster and impeccable smoothness. Faint die clashing is noticed at the base of the reverse. Population: 8 in 68 Full Bands, 0 finer (3/09).
