- Condition Census Full Bands 1918-D Mercury Dime 1918-D Mercury Dime. MS-65+ FB (NGC). CAC. A dazzling Gem with satiny luster and virtually untouched surfaces. Exceptionally well struck with predominantly pearly-silver coloration across both sides. This is absolutely one of the most desirable survivors of this issue, an irresistible treasure for advanced Mercury dime specialists. A product of the wartime Denver Mint, the 1918-D was produced in large numbers (22,674,800 pieces), but with little regard for quality. Most coins were very weakly struck, even at the peripheries where sharpness is rarely an issue. It is thought that fewer than 20% of Mint State examples exhibit the central sharpness to qualify for the Full Bands designation, and these are largely confined to grades of MS-64 and lower. This NGC/CAC MS-65+ FB is a miraculous survivor showcasing exceptional production quality and preservation. Provenance: NGC Census: 1; 1 finer in this category (MS-66+ FB). CAC Population: 6; 1. The former total includes coins certified both MS-65 FB and MS-65+ FB. PCGS# 4919. NGC ID: 23H6. Click here for certification details from NGC.
