Highly Pleasing 1916-D Dime
MS64 Full Bands

1916-D 10C MS64 Full Bands PCGS. The 1916-D dime has long been celebrated as a rarity due to its low mintage for a twentieth century U.S. coin (264,000 pieces). The demand for it seems to be constant, not only from Mercury dime collectors, but also from others simply wanting an example for their collections.
Our near-Gem offering possesses a highly pleasing satin-like sheen. This is complemented by sharply struck design elements that culminate not only in Full Bands, but in boldness on all of the design elements. The untoned surfaces are nicely preserved, revealing just a couple of trivial, unobtrusive marks. Indeed, these are fewer than what might be expected for the designated grade.
From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
