Description
1942/1 Mercury Dime, MS62
Speckled Multicolored Toning
1942/1 10C FS-101 MS62 NGC. Both the 1942/1 and 1942/1-D
overdate Mercury dimes are rated as a 5, the highest level, for
interest and liquidity by the Cherrypickers' Guide.
Translated for those who lack the secret handshake, this means that
collectors avidly seek examples of each variety and will pay
readily for nice specimens, particularly in the Mint State grades
where they become quite elusive. The Philadelphia overdate, in
particular, is seldom seen in Mint State with Full Bands. This is a
surprising result, given that some 205 million-plus examples were
made of the 1942 Philadelphia dime. The surfaces on this piece are
bright with speckled multicolored patina. The underdigit is strong,
as always. Census: 38 in 62, 37 finer (12/24).Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2015), lot 3912.
