- 1926-S Mercury Dime. MS-65 FB (PCGS). A subtle golden iridescence paints the silvery and pearlescent surfaces of this gorgeous Gem. The luster is uniform and satiny, emphasizing the overall smooth and unblemished surfaces. Sharp for the issue and flashy in-hand. With a mintage of just 1,520,000 coins, the 1926-S Mercury dime is one of the scarcer issues in the series and is one of just seven issues with mintages below two million coins. Mint State examples are elusive and become increasingly so as you approach Gem condition. When striking quality and Full Bands qualification are considered, this population is even further limited. Researcher David W. Lange describes Gem Full Bands examples as "frustratingly rare," which does well to describe the truly challenging nature of this issue. PCGS has certified just 24 coins at the present MS-65 FB level, and just 14 pieces grade finer. Provenance: From the Anne Kate Collection. PCGS Population: 24; 14 finer through MS-67 FB. PCGS# 4959. NGC ID: 23HT. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
