Description

1916-D Mercury Dime, MS62 Full Bands
Original Border Toning

1916-D 10C MS62 Full Bands PCGS. With a mintage of only 264,000 coins, the 1916-D Mercury dime became an instant numismatic delight upon its coinage, and collectors searched circulation for years seeking examples. Many worn pieces are known today due to these efforts, while Mint State coins -- especially those with Full Bands -- are usually attainable only by advanced collectors. This is a pleasing lower-end Mint State Full Bands piece, showing satiny luster with champagne-tinged slate-gray patina. Hints of russet appear in the most protected areas of the fields. Grade-limiting abrasions are minor.(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23GY, PCGS# 4907, Greysheet# 4524)
