1916-D Mercury Dime, MS64 Full Bands
Key to the Series

1916-D 10C MS64 Full Bands PCGS. The Denver Mint coined just 264,000 Mercury dimes in 1916, the first of their kind, but quickly stopped production to fulfil a Treasury Department order to produce 6.5 million quarter dollars of the earlier Barber design. Lincoln cents, Buffalo nickels, and Walking Liberty half dollars were the only other coins struck in Denver that year. The production shift created a Denver Mint rarity for modern day collectors. This Choice Mint State example features an excellent strike with delicate gold toning over brilliant silver surfaces that display satin luster. PCGS has certified just 73 finer Full Bands examples of the 1916-D Mercury dime (2/25).(Registry values: N4719)
