November 2020 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1942/1-D Mercury Dime. FS-101. MS-64 FB (PCGS). OGH. Delicate champagne-gold toning blends with softly frosted luster on both sides of this lovely near-Gem example. Fully struck with strong eye appeal. The Denver Mint counterpart to the 1942/1 Mercury dime, the 1942/1-D was discovered by Delma K. Romines in 1962, and widely publicized. However, by that time all or nearly all had been placed into circulation with the result that the average condition was apt to be VF or EF. Curiously the Denver Mint coins do come with sharper strikes, so when a Mint State coin is found, it most likely will have the desired Full Bands strike, as here. Yet even so, the present example is finer than most and would serve as a highlight in any Mercury dime set. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. PCGS# 5041. NGC ID: 23K6.
